I have to admit that I am not very up on all of the internet abbreviations, but i figure it out as I go. Some of the album ones throw me, unless it's a reference to something already spelled out. There are a lot of lengthy titles in prog, so I understand the use. Perhaps a glossary would be helpful.

It's an absolutely herculean effort...
IMO.

Strange list of bands/tracks in your last.fm sig ... I take it you're using the last.fm player?
BTW: Sig, that's another stupid abbreviation. AKA "Siggy".

That always reminds me of a sentence from a great English comedy series (let's see who recognizes it):
"orly ... where orly? You orly men?"

Now, thanks to all of you (term freaks); I ended up looking for the meaning of "LOL" in the wikipedia. But there was also a very good article on Orpheus, that I'll actually gonna use to writte some short stories, so, I guess this wasn't a complete waste of time and broadband.

"Several Species Of Small Furry Animals Gathered Together In A Cave And Grooving With A Pict."

I also hate this kind of thing. I still don't have a clue on "LOL". But I won't search. In fact; I think I'm going to start writting interesting comments EN ESPAÑOL CADA VEZ QUE VEA ALGUNA DE ÉSAS EXPRESIONES, SÓLO PARA CONTAR CONLA CAPACIDAD DE GENERAR LAS MISMAS INTERROGANTES A LAS QUE TÉRMINOS COMO "LOL" ME TRAEN CUANDO TRATO DE LEER ALGO Y ME TOPO CON ÉSA CLASE DE COSAS. EN VERDAD ES MUY FRUSTRANTE. |
¿Sabes que? a mi me pasa lo mismo con "lol", los demas mas o menos los entiendo, pero tu metodo parece ser bueno y aparte mucha gente se estara preguntando que diablos estoy escribiendo ahora.
