Default Three letter acronyms

Could professional and knowledgeable contributors please be aware that
they are confusing us in the real world with the usage of their
collections of TLAs (Three Letter Acronyms). These are fine in the
work place, but are useless and irritating elsewhere.

I agree that there are some that are known by all but there are many
that are peculiar to specific areas of plumbing, electricity, etc and
in the end an answer becomes useless if it cannot be understood
because of shortcuts in the language.


BTW, I agree.
