In this case, it might not be a good idea if, as I suspect, the acronym "ROM" was felt as insulting for every Rumanian not being addict to Caribbean alcoholics. Perhaps these changes would not be necessary if standardization bodies would take a moment to think and consult a dictionary before choosing a label. Oh, well, OK, an identifier is just an identifier. So, why not choosing "tequila" or "cannabis" for English. :-) _ Marco
