This is a page of acronyms and what they expand to. I will probably try to find a list elsewhere and paste in in here, in the meantime, I hope these few will encourage poeple to contribute.

 In fact this page is a little pointless really given the existance of Acronym Finder and millions of other pages like it.  It was really an experiment in wikilife to see if people would add questions here and answer them.  I'm not sure it /failed/ as no one ever asked a question.  I think it went wrong because people can readily find the information elsewhere and indeed are more likely to than to post here.  Or is that me just being overoptimistic?  -- SimonHuggins
