For my fellow puzzle addicts:

Here is this weeks NPR puzzle (Sunday Weekend edition)

Sunday Puzzle

By Will Shortz


Challenge for July 24:

A 10-letter word for a form of travel, that consists of five 
consecutive symbols of chemical elements. What is it? If automobile 
had been the answer, AU, would represent Gold, MO would represent 
Molybdenum, and BI, would represent Bismuth. Unfortunately, the 
remaining bigrams, TO and LE, are not chemical symbols.


I have put up a stack with two fields. The first contains all 10 
letter words in my dictionary.

The second contains all two character elements from the periodic table.

You task, should you choose to adopt it, is to write a Run Rev 
handler to solve this weeks NPR puzzle defined above.
