After Nicks abbreviation SPQR which left me bamboozled, is it just me or is there too much abbreviation nowadays. We soon shan't have sentences, but abbreviated lines of chat.
I have to admit, I don't understand half the abbreviations on here. I am sure I could cut my reading time by half, not sitting here trying to figure what half the things mean. :(
Oh dear....I must be getting old and senile. :-[

Far too many TLA's - Three Letter Acroynms.
