List of Acronyms

[610Alpha]

I have a blog article that I am using to make it easier so you won't have to go thru pages and pages of posts. If you think of an acronym send me a message and I will update the blog article or you can email me via my profile. I am trying to keep the acronyms focused on Preparedness topics....so I am not going to be explaining texting acronyms you can look those up via google.

It is good to have a list, as long as it can be up dated. I have found that these couple of sites have helped in the past.
