I have know what it means for quite some time but I am not sure why people use it. Does anyone really consider their opinion humble? Possibly in the midsts of great men some of us may be a bit timid. That is not the case for some on this board and thats a good thing. We are all great men and women, so we should not feel our opinions are humble. I may think you are wrong or have a different view than I do but come right on out and say it. Just my not so humble opinion, Steve.

BTW, IMHO, (FWIW) we should stop this PDQ (ASAP), OK?

Finally went to the cheat sheet. My brain only works at 5.6 knots.
Who makes this stuff up? Maybe they need boats to keep them busy.

I was just getting past FWIW, then I saw the cheat sheet. Like learning a second language.
Thanks everyone for your help.
