Ride the SLUT in Seattle!
"There's a story going around South Lake Union, but a spokeswoman for Vulcan, Paul Allen's development company, says it's just an urban legend.

That aside, the story that the neighborhood's streetcar line now under construction was called the South Lake Union Trolley until the powers that be realized the unfortunate acronym -- SLUT -- seems here to stay.

Officially, it's now the South Lake Union Streetcar. But the trolley name already has caught on, and in the old Cascade neighborhood in South Lake Union, they're waiting for the SLUT."

When we get around to building Transit City we really should make sure the lines have names that are just as good.

I think it has since changed its name, but there used to be in California a First Unitarian Church of Kingston.
