Worse than Y2K....more impactive than IPV6 ...its.....
TLA Overload.
Yes...you heard it here first... Three Letter Acronym Overload 2005 is the
year we completely ran out of three letter acronyms.
|
OMG! AFAK this is totally awesome news. I TY personally for bringing this to my
attention.
| |
Due to increasing use of TLA’s in the computer and manuafacturing industry,
the approach to TLA OVerload has increased exponentially. In an effort to
overcome this serious overlap in TLA namespace, we have created the TLA
Oversight Group Association (TOGA) to propose a new standard for three letter
abreviations. Note the clever use of a FLA (Four Letter Abbreviation)
namespace that is not expected to run out until at least 2009).
|
Excellent! Any proposed dates for when we will reach the full term for the 7
letter variety Re: ROFLMAO
| |
The current proposal on the table involves the use of a date modifier/order
context identifier to all TLA’s based on the official date of registration
with the Global TLA Authority (GTA-2005-001).
For example, the Global TLA Authority will now and foreverever be referred
not as GTA (not to beconfused with the Greater Toronto Area, Grand Theft
Auto, or the Gerorgia Telephone Association) but as GTA-2005-001, providing
both the year of TLA registration and the annual index entry.
For existing TLA (now referred to as TLA-2005-001) usage, all companies,
groups and associations who wish to resifter their TLA-2005-001 can contact
the GTA-2005-01 at WWW-2005-025.TLA-20050-001.COM-2005-042 and register their
TLA-2005-001 ASAP.

Contact them I did!
IANAL, but after a quick, DL via FTP, ASAP I read the FAQ, ToU and ToS,
everything look so well planned, I must admit this SO much better then HSOA
(Help Stamp Out Acronyms) society I was supporting ENF. FTPTTDS (and I’m not
talking robotics here!)
| |
With your help and support migration to the new TLA-2005-001 standard will be
painless and transparent to most people.
|
Wait, I was with you totally until you said “painless”, I have some issues with
that, I mean, seriously, NPNG right? This can’t be good.
Of course, this is NMFP, so KISS MTL can be effective, but I would rather STAR
and then opt out with BTWB, and call it a day.
