There is a list of questions that come up every now and again... and when people answer many of the questionees give a "whats that" response.
This is a quick Key Terms list to define the Acronyms and such of key terms and phrases used on the forums.

I looked at the stickied FAQs and the terms weren't really defined.... so I'm starting one now.

Guys, this thread is for BG terms, not general acronyms. I've removed a post that was off-topic. Let's keep things focused. Thanks.
