<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Ken Dorney, post: 3116364, member: 76086&quot;]True, but with a caveat.&nbsp; Very few ever use it, have used it, or will use it.&nbsp; Few have ever heard of it or will ever have an interest.&nbsp; I once owned the title but found it of so little use I got rid of it.&nbsp; Many references now only exist as a bragging right by the bigger auction houses.&nbsp; &quot;see, we are so huge and awesome that we can quote a book very few have or will ever use&quot; (and few will ever know of, care about, own or use the title).&nbsp; But, that&#039;s not the issue.&nbsp; Its the acronym.&nbsp; Has it been used before?&nbsp; Sure.&nbsp; Does anyone know what it means?&nbsp; Few.&nbsp; My point is that acronyms are created pretty much daily, and few know what the heck they mean.</p><p><br /></p><p>If you doubt me, well, you likely dont have kids, or if you do, they are probably not of the &#039;younger&#039; crowd.&nbsp; My son (15 years) tried an experiment this year.&nbsp; He created a word:&nbsp; &quot;Scomp&quot;.&nbsp; It means, let&#039;s go.&nbsp; In the vernacular that I understand from the 80&#039;s, &quot;Let&#039;s Jet&quot;.&nbsp; He put it out there, instagram or whatever nonsense these kids listen to.&nbsp; He was pleased that after a few months it took hold, and (supposedly, I have no idea or care, really) it appeared in some HBO show.&nbsp; Dont know, dont care.&nbsp; But, I honestly dont know if its an acronym or something else.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
