Speaking of acronyms, I once worked in a department that loved
acronyms. We had one word that, when properly digested (or is that
regurgitated) was an acronym buried in an acronym buried in an acronym
and so on for seven layers!
And just for the record, I'm not a fan of paradigm, utilize, interface
(when referring to talking to someone), or any other computer term
used to describe any kind of human to human interaction.
