Folks,
If people folllowed the principles used in academia et al, as I understand them,
the first usage of a term is spelt out in full followed by in brackets the
acromyn or abbreviation that will be used through the paper.
For example Unix System Services (USS)
United States Ship (USS)
Then no one has a valid cause of complaint
Ken
Brackets? Oh, you mean parentheses: ( )
Brackets are: [ ] (not "square brackets", just "brackets")
Braces are: { } (not "curly braces", just "braces")
Oh, wait. It's not Friday yet. Sorry. ;-)
