Thanks!

BTW, I was searching all these acronyms, looking to cut off the set acronyms
that aren't in use here. The results I got were hilarious:
50% of the sets appeared in three fixed messages; my acronym FAQ and two other
similar guides...
WP (wolfpack according to Derek Schin) appeared in a ~hundreds of messages -
99% posted by John DiRienzo, because WP was in his sig! ;-) I was ROFL!
I updated stuff like DM that could easily be confused (I wrote Dragon Masters,
but what about Duetsche Marks?!) and IP - not only Ice Planet!

I'm still waiting cause I know people will find more stuff. LMK if you do.
