The use of abbreviations

May I ask that when you kindly write to me that you avoid the use of abbreviations. This is for a few reasons. 1 I may not know what you mean by a certain abreviated word, 2, others may not know what you mean by it and may be afraid to ask and lastly it may cause confusion not only for the person reading, but if you require an answer to a question it may be answered incorrectly if the questions is not understood in its original format. I hope that I am not offending anyone by this comment. But I think in a forum that is trying to reach and connect with as many people as possible then it is important to try and be as clear and Precise as possible. You may if you wish write the word followed by the abbreviation in brackets.

I would appreciate your thoughts on this Regards James Price
