    Here is a slightly revised list of acronyms for this list. (& to state the
    obvious, some of these have other meanings in other contexts. PC can be "politically
    correct" or "personal computer" as well as "progressive creationism.") I received only
    a couple of suggested additions. Again, general internet abbreviations and highly
    specialized terms have not been included. After some consideration I decided also not
    to include either official or unofficial acronyms for church bodies (ELCA, RC, &c.)
