Yesterday we asked you to come up with a name for the phrasing of "AAA" - it's not an acronym and it's not an initialism. Well, you provided your suggestions, and now it's time to vote on your favorite. Perhaps the OED will take its cues from the Brian Lehrer Show listeners!

    Was just listening online to your mention of the match, just ended. With matching periods fewer this year, I just thought it might help to remind people who missed one that many companies will match their employees pledges. I pledged early on so I could get the task and the _guilt_ out of the way. But once again, I missed being able to double the money. But looking on the intranet, there was the answer: WNYC's listing on my HR Employee Giving page. In my company you can even sign up days after you've pledged, as long as WNYC receives your pledge within 5 days of your HR request. Hope this helps in your last day.

    I submitted this idea yesterday, wonder why it wasn't liked.

    AAA should be classified as an INITIANYM.
