   The U.S. government would do well to also get rid of acronyms and also   
   update things like aviation weather reports which look like this...

   In the past, with slow teletype machines and everything needing to be   
   printed on paper, that was necessary. But these days those abbreviations   
   can all be spelled out and the communications made more understandable.   
      
   Another dinosaur is the legal system which has yet to computerize many   
   things. For example you still have to call or go in person and look at a   
   printout to see what courtroom a case will be in.
