At any rate, I was wondering if there is a list anywhere on the site that I may have overlooked or been unable to find using search that spells out all the popular acronyms that are used for PBS. This would definately be useful for new members. I can start a list but I didn't want to "reinvent the wheel".

I think you'd have to list the acronyms to get definitions.  I usually google them, but that doesn't always work.  The few that bugged me the longest were TPTB = the powers that be and ETA = edited to add.  There's FIFO = first in first out, and there's FABIL = find a book I'd like...I can't think of many others aside from the usual LOL, OMG and stuff like that.  If you post a specific one here you'll get at least a half-dozen people letting you know what it means.

I saw an acronym today for the first time that isn't in the Glossary. From the context it was used in, I assume it has to do with the condition that a book is received in. RWAP
