Acronymous Rex
Sometimes, acronyms are just so apt. It was decades ago also that I discovered for myself the ancient practice of signing off with 'IHS', which variously stood for 'In His Service' or for the first three letters of the name 'Jesus' in Greek. I remembered that a few years ago. Sadly, not all uses of acronyms reflect the glory of the intended original, for better or worse. Just recall, my friends, when water and other services were controlled by the PUB - Public Utilities Board. Hilarious.

what new worlds have you opened up behind those cyptic words now?
I don't know... *grin* I mean, look at Singapore Mass Rapid Transit. They could have called it SMART, instead of SMRT. Now it sounds like 'smirk'. Same with ACS(I). You should Google 'acsi' and see what hits your list first.
