In the interests of communication, I ask that no one use anything except the
Queen's good English - no Americanisms, no contractions, no abbreviations,
certainly no acronyms and that includes USA, UK, AU, EU et cetera.
If you can't learn to speak the language of the web, maybe you shouldn't be wandering there. It's one of the reasons Americans are looked down upon when they travel. We think our language should be spoken everywhere and aren't willing to learn the local language even if we intend to spend a lot of time there. It's the same with the internet, the web has a language and if you're going to be doing things that involve the web and talking with the people there, it would be courteous to learn some of the words that are unique to this setting. Or, if you're not, you need to learn to put up with understanding only half of what is said.
Like French Canadians show extemely well, if you don't speak my language, TOO BAD.
*This message was transferred with a trial version of CommuniGate(tm) Pro* I repeat: In the interest of communication, I request that people not use these abbreviations/acronyms - I'm not about to look them up and won't get the meaning of some of these e-mails. (INATLTUAWGTMOSOTE.)
