Funny Abbreviations

Here is a little collection of abbreviations, which I could put together on this page only through the great help of a lot of people.

In case you have some more of these abbreviations, especially some that are not listed or mentioned here, please drop me a line that I can add them here. At this spot a very big thank you to Heiko Rupp, Michael Voigt and Stefan Wahler for their support to get this collection together.

In case of very uncommon abbreviations, which might not be known to well, you can find a little explanation what it stands for here.
