Abbreviations???????

Post by Matthew »

Hey all--

Haven’t had much time to post of late but just wanted to make what I hope is a helpful comment since I have had some time to read.

It took me forever to figure out what DH meant in this post.

I assume it means Dermatitis Herpetiformis

Still not really sure what NCSG means in this post

http://www.perskyfarms.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=10048.

Just as a conveniece it would be nice to use the whole term at the beginning of any post.

In that there are probably hundreds of lookers that never join or post it would really make a hughe diference for those newcomers that have never heard the terminology and are confused enough anyway

Let alone those of us that are beginning to get stuck in their dotage and spen hours trying to figure it out .

My best

Hey Matthew,

I've been wondering the same thing. I'm glad you brought it up. All these abbreviations can be confusing.

Thanks!
