Btw., my favorite acronym is IRLM. A long time ago IBM created something they called an 'Information Management System' which quickly became known as IMS.

Some years later they made a new database system called DB2 and they needed a subsystem to control access to parts of the database. They snatched something from IMS and called it the 'IMS resource lock manager'. This - of course - became known as IRLM.

So the 'I' in IRLM is an abbreviation of another acronym.

Ok ok so apparently no room for Maddox-esque humor in the 2+2 Other Other Topics forum. My bad.

It is amazing you haven't found yourself a way to get banned by now.

ISI.

It seems inevitable.
