abbreviations

OK what do people mean with the one IIRC?

Rather than show my ignorance I looked it up on the web and found at least 18 different so If I Remember Correctly - It Is Really Cool to use this useless abbreviation and no one gives a fig for what you are actually trying to say!!

If I Remember Correctly ... is the generally understood one ...

FWIW, IMHO /forums/images/graemlins/tongue.gif

All these TLA's and FlA's can be confusing!

Yer - a right PITA ...


TTFN!

Why am I not surprised I immediately got all the other abbreviations mentioned but have to look yours up!!

But you use easy ones TLA only has 46 possible meanings including Three Letter Acronym & FIA is even easier with a possible 86 possible meanings. Having spoken to you and recognising a man of intense intelligence I realise you meant FluroImmunoAssay.

Clarity and ease of understanding is everything!!

Thanks tried your one but it only gave me 3 meanings for TLA & FIA.

The one I found on the internet had 46 & 86 respectively. With so many options I can pick the ones that I like the best!

I thought IIRC was a handicapping system for offshore racing?

Anyway its F L A, which I'm sure you can work out without looking it up. Just needs a bit of arithmatic.
