Actual acronyms seem to usually be reserved for people: RAs, CAs, AAs, PAs, PHEs, HAAs, which turned into HPACs and now no longer exist (I think that's true).The G-nut Spothttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08010452589546778012noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8328581569100218305.post-54149658142291255082009-07-27T05:38:21.916-07:002009-07-27T05:38:21.916-07:00Man, I'm suprised to see the mention of the ac...Man, I'm suprised to see the mention of the acronym EANABS! When Ryan Rygg was out in Boston the day after you were here, we came up with a useful acronym, INABS. (This is actually true.) It stands for "INABS Not A Bad Sandwich" and can be used to describe sandwiches that are not bad.<br /><br />Who knew that just a few weeks later, you would be interacting with such a similar acronym? Another statistical improbability, and on the good side!<br /><br />(Perhaps we can double up EANABS to mean "EANABS Also Not A Bad Sandwich.")Brandonhttp://pingswept.orgnoreply@blogger.com
