| CIRCLE PERIMETER | Circumference (Irrational Ratio Called-Logically!) Equals Pi! (Energizes Representation In Math Equations) Two (Er) Radius |
Charles H. Montgomery, Jr. Outside of parentheses in EXPANSION: Circumference = Pi Two Radiusor C=2*Pi*R. The ! signals that (Irrational Ratio Called-Logically!) is Pi! "Called-Logically!" is a PUNNY way of saying "most Pies are CIRCLES." Er is Chinese Two. Hope the grave accent for Èr worked. I thought that (Energizes Representation In Math Equations) was very important. For centuries, primary school children have learned C=2*Pi*R, so this inclusion might help whoever reads this APRONYM when they study advanced math.

| WHAT PEOPLE ARE LOOKING FOR | Will Hermann Attempt To Program Exploration Of Posts? Listing Every Acronym Reveals, Eventually, Location Of Our Konversations. It's Not Good For Other Reconnaissance. |
Angela Brett, when someone searched for that phrase on the Acronyms website. If Edwin made the forums searchable, I could integrate a search of the Acronyms Forums into the normal acronym search form, and then someone searching for that phrase would find the 'What people are looking for' threads on the forums. The current such thread is at http://www.co.nz/cgi/forums/list.cgi?id=acronyms&user=&session=&root=1015278415, but I start a new thread of what people are looking for whenever one gets too long, so I would recommend going to http://www.co.nz/cgi/forums/start.cgi?id=acronyms and looking near the top of the thread list for a thread with 'What people are looking for' in the title.
