And feel free to ask questions about things that are not easily understood. A sort of tribal language is often used here. Most likely, however, several other readers (in addition to you) are wondering and will appreciate an explanation.</p> <p>I wish the list of acronyms would be updated.

Search for "acronyms" or "abbreviations" and you'll pull up lots and lots of forum threads giving various explanations. </p> <p>ETA: When you're search, be sure to set the time frame for longer than a year, so you get all the threads, not just the recent ones. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/confused-by-acronyms#post-1895985 Sat, 03 Mar 2018 13:33:00 +0000 Molly Mac 1895985@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Happy weekend! I am new to this forum and am a little confused by some of the acronyms such as HEWI, IT, etc...Is there a place on the blog that explains these or could y'all fill me in? Some of them I can figure out based on context but some leave me scratching my head. Thanks in advance. This forum is both fun and helpful. </p>
