[sdiy] common acronyms?

[John L Marshall]

I hate TLA's.























TLA=Three Letter Acryonym
Truth is that acronyms must be pronounceable.

There are also bacronyms. The computer programing language Basic is a fine
example of a bacronym. In ther early days Basic was Basic. Later, some !@#$%
tech writer decided that it must stand for something and Beginner All
purpose Symbolic Instruction Code was born. If you examine the bacronym none
of its terms apply to Basic.

Okay. I'll stop ranting.
