Abbreviations on the HUBB, to be avoided?

As there are many non native englishspeaking people on this board, can't we do something to keep down the use of abbreviations?

I thought SA might mean South Africa, but last I met it, it meant South America.

TdF meant Tour de France to me, but after a while I found out, these people were NOT going to France but to Tierra del Fuego.

It isn't bad here, but could be better.

BOYS, BOYS !

We are getting siderailed here. The thread was about REDUCING the use of abbreviations and not the invention and use of, the sillier the better, abbreviations. :)

EDIT: Sorry, I forgot that I posted to the HU BAR. That explains it ;)
