I knew that.
Shouldn't the question read, "What's its' third letter?"
I think this teaser would work better when it is spoken.

Hi, I'm commenting on my own teaser.(Or not)
love it but Krisnan has a good point. An alternative question is: What is the third letter?

Saw that one coming a mile away
When I saw this one I knew I could get my sister with this one. Keep up the good work and try to get a harder one for my sister.
old fashioned!!!
"its" doesn't have a possessive apostrophe.
it's = it is
its = possessive
it *may* have a plural possessive apostophe (as in there are multiple "its" who own something), but this is unlikely as you would usually use "their" to connote multiple possessions

Great teaser nice trick.
I agree with some others that it's incorrect without the possessive apostrophe.
