OP it was coined in jest, as one of my pet peeves is the ridiculous overuse of acronyms
Glad you could stay on topic while carefully and surely putting me in my place!
Had I known that 'he who is revered by all' (and whose name I dare not mention, mainly because I've seen so many of them I can't figure which one to use) had coined the term I would never have dared mention changing it. NOT! Ya don't scare me! Ha ha ha...
In reply to your PM, I'm taking your post in the spirit in which it was intended and as far as hanging around for a bit? Just TRY getting rid of me. You guys keep me sane (I know, I know ... it's a loose definition) in an otherwise dull workday! Thanks y'all!!
