got another question

#1 Postby mkapw » Mon Sep 06, 2004 12:59 pm

What does all the GOM and NHC ... and GHU and LOM and KKR mean? (no not all of them are ones I've seen on here but there are so many I can't remember them to type them out?

Is there a thread or site that tells what some of them are?

Here's a site for NHC acronyms:
