[quoted lines by Lee Maschmeyer on 2007/08/30 at 10:34 -0400]

>AARP should be spelled out:

What's AARP? Is it an abbreviation? Is the proper solution to maintain a list 
of all known abbreviations which contain contractable sequences? Should we 
simply not contract any word that's wholly in uppercase?
