AAA bans TLAs on IIS after CME thread confusion

As PE (President-Elect, not periodic error) of the AAA (Abolish Acronyms Australia) I wish to inform you that our recent on-line VOMIT (Vote of Members by Information Technology) resulted in all AAAAs (Associates of ... ) agreeing to PM (private message) all IIS (Ice in Space) members informing them of a ban on using not only TLAs, but also SLAs, DLAs and QLAs. ('SLA' in this context means single-letter-acronyms, not sealed lead-acid batteries. Similarly 'TLA' refers to the triple-versions of SLAs, not Transient Lunar Anomalies.)

Penalties for contravening the MORT (moratorium on reduced text) will apply as determined by PUMs (paid-up members) at our September AGM (Annual General Meeting), DV (Deo volante).

Arthur Smirke (Prof), FAAA, MIIS, MCN, TAE, RATFCE.
