My point on this…
What is this world comming to?
An Acronyms Authority? For Pete’s-Sake, (and I mean that!, Pete… if your really out there?)
I mean, Come on… lets get real! “Acronyms” are/should be, and were meant to be used only within the same body of information… whether it’s a book, essay, paper, etc. so that valuable space or irritating repetitiveness dosen’t consume the readers mind. Now sure… I used Acronyms in short paragraphs where I didn’t need to…. I’m guilty
But this thing about Political correctness on the meaning of Acronyms, or Acronyms being used and copy-righted by businesses, that should be illegal. Political Correctness should only associate with words and Phrases themselves, and Acronyms be used for what they were designed/meant for.
Before… the term “windows” was an open concept name used in the early portion of the computer age, now it’s to be the sole property of a dictatorship firm known as Micro Soft?
They weren’t even the ones who came up with the windows term?, and just because some bought off judge decides that the name is now property… dosen’t make it so.
What next? Some one going to Copyright the name Darleen? How about Buch? Maybe Bill… Now that would be funny!, Right B.G.?
Hey, what if someone copyrighted the term “IT”, what then…. everytime we use it, we pay royalty?
When the heck did Language ever become ownership? Ideas… sure, Language…, names…, Acronyms… hello world, get real.
So… What’s your Opinion?
