Sort of splitting hairs and sort of not, but "per" should be "for one" so as to get the units right (i.e. end up with energy).

lol, lmfao. This was funny! Also helpful, it was the first time I have heard a sensible explanation of DFCO. The transmission runs up the RPM's? cool. I guess all these acronyms are just the CODB on forums like this.

hover over acronym with explanation??

I know it was probably posted somewhere else and maybe several times, but, being a non-native speaker, i regularly get lost with all the acronyms used. I think modyfying BB code parser should not be too complicated and it should be possible to link it with database of some kind. Opensource project DokuWiki does it (see http://www.dokuwiki.org/features#easy_integration , hover over RSS or LDAP) even without utilizing any database at all (just plain text files).

I think the code ivolved could be utilized in the forum here.

Where should we post request for adding this feature/post help offer?
