I spent over 25 years in the Army and the use of acronyms throughout the
Department of Defense is acronymonious.

About a year ago I joined a Very Large Company and my pet peeve is not
so much words as it is the acronymphomania that is so pervasive. I wish
I could find a Powerpoint presentation I saw not so long ago which had
one slide that was almost totally and completely acronyms. If there were
ten actual words on this slide, I'd eat it.

You had to be there ....


My 2¢,

John Garison
