ACRONYMS

[Darth Stewie]

Hey all,
just a thought. while use newbies troll through all the info available, trying to sort out where to start etc. There are alot of acronyms.
some are obvious (ANH, ESB etc) but some ...
any links to a site that has them or can you start one?

[TheWolf]

I think there was a thread once, but I believe that was back on the old Redback Squad site....
Perhaps it could be dredged up ??

Oh, Found it... Here's the link to that thread too...
