Cool! I'll use this '.find()' more often, it throws no exception (intead of '.index()' and help combine two conditions in one row. Thanks!

Clever indeed! I was a little thrown off at first by the 0 because I thought, "what if the first letter is literally the first letter and word.find(first) returns 0? Then I saw the + 1 and went "Oh. Duh!" I need to remember to look at the whole string first!! Good job!
