    Is there a need for all these acronyms? I mean, unless you're in a rush, or sending a text message, or have a limit on the number of characters in the area you're writing in...

    Don't mind me, I'm just being argumentative! Haha.

    Sure we need them. If it weren't for all of the aronyms we use we'd never confuse all of the new guys.... er, ah, I mean... Many (if not most) of us have some sort of military background. After even just 1 tour you get so used to using acronyms that it becomes second nature.

    I heard once that congress had proposed an ARP, but brass rejected it..

    (Acronym Reduction Program)

    and just to clarify, I am not former military- work with alot of them, and corporate American has adopted acronyms almost as fully..
