No, this is not a question about the Septuagint. At least I don't really think so.

Tonight on the drive home I was behind a car (an ordinary sedan) with the personalized license plate "LXX".

Of course, I immediately thought "Septuagint". And then wondered if there were a fellow Eastern Christian in the car ahead (well, OK, not quite!).

But I could not think of what else it might have stood for. The driver was not of that age. And I know no popular causes associated with "LXX".

Anyone have an idea?

Good points, both.

Not sure if it was a Lexus. It was after dark and I just did not notice.
