This message to me is a reminder that we should be more explicit in naming
places or events.
Not only are there many people from many parts of the WORLD, who is to know
that years down the road that even the abbreviations of today will not be
understood. Now, we do want what we write to be understood for generations
to come, right?

BTW: And who is going to have a clue especially when we use that which is
acceptable in "computer speak" ?
