This is kinda kinda tricky ...

it says to select the ul list inside the class contact-info

so I typed out the following ...

.contact-info ul {

}

the correct answer was

.contact-info {

}

I figured out what it was asking for ... but the question needs to be asked a bit better ...

Hi Nathan,

The instructions state (emphasis mine): "Select the unordered list with the class contact-info..." This is different from what you say in your question. The instructions don't say anything about the ul being inside another element with a class of "contact-info"

We can't see the html in this challenge but the instructions are telling you that the html looks like this:

<ul class="contact-info">
</ul>

This is an unordered list with the class "contact-info"

That being said, there are a lot of posts about this challenge with people trying to use .contact-info ul So I don't know whether it's the instructions or something else from the videos.
