INSTRUCTIONS: People love to make up acronymical explanations for words that aren't acronyms; for example, "cop" does not stand for Constable On Patrol.

This task asks you to make this creative mistake deliberately, to help the public understand what words truly mean. Find a word written somewhere out in the world, and publicly post what its letters stand for.

2/3/10 i came up with an acronym for america in class a few weeks ago. it is A Mighty Earthen Region Inadequately Cared About. i will write this on a dollar bill and insert it in a vending machine, so that all who come in contact with it may learn and try to take better care of their region of this might earth.

I like that you took this as an opportunity to participate in consumer culture. Screw SF0's anti-consumerism!

thanks, i really dont know anywhere else that america is posted in my area, and i couldnt think up an acronym for anything other than stop, so $1.25 seemed like a fair enough deal for 45+ points.
