    Sorry, igotid88, but I think you are LOST. Yours should have started with an "L".

    Good try cutz but igotid88 is correct here- SEPTA is said like a word, not as individual letters as in S-E-P-T-A.

    Keep trying, you'll get it. Good brain work!

    You got the initialism part right Wob but since the acronym PIN was last the post the initialism you want should start with the last letter, "N".

    So let's go with NAACP as our initialism. That's an interesting because besides the letters being spoken it also includes the word "double" as in N-double A-C-P.

    (Hint, up next we are looking for an acronym starting with a "P")
