    Acronyms

    This forum is a fantastic source of info for newbies like me. Many thanks to all the experienced folks posting here. Judging by the number of views, there are lots of folks like me benefiting from your experience.

    One observation: As a newbie, figuring out all the acronyms in the posts slowed me down a lot. WL, SSUG, HG, JRB, MYOG, SPE, etc.

    No one is getting paid to post, and acronyms save keystrokes. But fewer of them would benefit the masses of newbies out there trying to pick up hints.

    Anyway, just a thought. TYVM for all the education!

    Here's a glossary of terms, too. Click HERE It's the only place on the internet where you'll find out that a "thread injector" is a sewing machine!
