One of the things I most strongly do not like is TLA's that is Three Letter Acronyms In fact several terms and things used in these forums be they TLA's or full words mean different things.
TV Television
TV Tow vehicle
EMS.. Intelletec uses it to mean one thing. Progressive INdustires something Quite different.
Though I use A/C to mean Air Conditioning AC is used to mean both Alternating Current and Air COnditioning.
and several other terms are like that as well.. PCM (Pulse Code Modulation and Power Control Module) likewise.. I have to admit as an Electronc type I think the former and have to adjust when it is the latter. NOt complainign in the specific but in general.
Good idea. the first time you TLA to (Three Letter Acronym) Spell it out. Else confusion will ensue
Thus proclaimed the deity: "ENSUE ILLUMINATION"
And Illumination thusely ensued.
A very common phrase.. I translated it from English... to English.
Well. actually Dr. I Asimov did the translation. I just read his essay.
