Newbie needs info.
Help! Being new to the forum and not being a compuer wiz. Could someone tell me what some of the initials mean? I figured out pita and pos (it figures I'd get those) But what are btw, ot and some of the others. Its hard to play along when your not sure what is being said. Also, How do you add on to a thread without starting a new one? Told ya I ain't a computer wiz. Thanks for any help.
