Do you suppose there are other clubs that use the word STAPH? And I don't mean when the health department visits.

You have text messaging and chatrooms to blame for that.

I was in communications in the Royal Navy and the radio operators basically had their own language by using radio transmission abbreviations in regular conversation. For example, instead of saying "I beg your pardon" if you didn't hear someone we would just say "I M I" which is morse code (.. -- ..) for 'say again'

I think the youngsters who use 'prolly' and 'cuz' etc will outgrow it soon enough.
