It looks like you left off the left curly brace at the beginning.
You also should have put parentheses around your 'adder' formula.
I'm not sure about your use of 'COST'. Maybe it's all right.
{'ui_ship_type' => "weight",'table' => "2ndDayAir",'zone' =>
"220",'ups' => "1",'at_least' => "5.50",'adder' => "(\@\@TOTAL\@\@ *
.25 ) .25 ) + 2.00",'geo' => "zip",}
This works very well for me for determining the cost based on weight
and zone.
It mandates a minimum shipping charge of $5.50, it adds on 25% of what
it found in the rate table for that weight to that zone, and then also
adds on a flat $2.00.

Yeah, without the parens, it gets confused.
