%N Three successive terms spelling the acronym T.E.N. when the sequence is translated in English, have a product divisible by 10.

%C This is the lexicographically earliest sequence of distinct terms (beginning either with E, N or T) with this property.

%e The first six terms are 2, 8, 95, 3, 11, 90...

%e Translated in English: Two, Eight, Ninety-five, Three, Eleven, Ninety...

%e We see that the first triple spells T.E.N. and has a product divisible by 10 [2*8*95=1520]; the same is true for the second triple [3*11*90=2970], etc.

%Y Cf. A319124 where the sum is divisible by 10 instead of the product.
