Ed:
Becareful you will start up another war. 
I think it is a problem that IBM can decide and clarify quite nicely. IBM 
should 
IMO do a 360 and say USS means unformatted system services. My rather poor 
memory says unformatted was in use before Unix came into general use. FWIW the 
UNIX people are usurping the acronym and are playing the elephant in the room 
here.
