>You find our pedantry irritating. Not usually. But occasionally. :-) I'm sure I've been guilty now and then of being a little pedantic myself.

So it's a draw. > For the record, I don't use USS for Unix System Services in my posts (only when quoting someone else). I usually write "z/OS Unix" as I said in my last post - even when replying to a post that uses the unofficial abbreviation. But I do get tired of the whining about it and the endless threads. I think some people use it just to get a rise from those who don't like it. I sympathize with you that you think "VTAM" at first glance when you see it in a post, but it's really not worth debating. That was my point. So this will be my final word on the subject and the next time I will just ignore the thread or temptation to reply like I usually do.
