Actually, it's really Chip and PIN.

I Tweeted, and their response was:

@josephstern60 It's Chip and PIN. To learn more, visit http://at.hwnair.com/tXBFK
Follow that and you get to:

Your card is a chip and signature card with PIN capability. In most cases when you travel abroad, you’ll be asked to sign for your transaction. But at some unattended terminals, such as train ticket kiosks, you may be asked to enter your PIN instead of signing. If you make a purchase in the U.S., you’ll continue to swipe your card the way you do today.
