Greetings All,
This forum is freakin' awesome! In the past week I've learned more from your posts than the books sitting on my shelf :-)
There are quite a few 2-3 letter acronyms and many terms that I had to lookup and still quite a few I am scratching my head over....
I did a quick search for "Glossary" but found that there does not seem to be one for this site?
Thanks & Happy Holidays!,
Bob
