I've got nothing against people writing SB instead of Super Block, but perhaps we should always try to type the whole name the first time we mention it in a post?


An excellent suggestion Speedplay (SP). I know that we insist on this in my professional area of integrated resources management (IRM), and use it for technical jargon (TJ) especially. :)

Now of course SP, I'm just making those things up to show how TJ should be introduced -especially (in my field) to people who are from another speciality in IRM.

More on topic, as a frictioned pip player (what's the good of learning the other ones which have to disappear soon), I'm not exactly up with all the frictionless abbreviations - so yes please - let's do each other the courtesy of making understanding easier.

One that's especially tricky is how we tend to use BH to mean either backhand or Bogeyhunter - not much difference eh!

Free speech is one thing - oh I would love if it was always clear speech!

I vote that someone (ie, not me) makes a glossary of all the TJ

Sounds like a good idea. I have started a new thread with an appropriate heading. Please contribute.
