Might there be a place on the forum where those of us who are from "Green-as-grassville" :? can go and get translations for all of the acronyms (I think that is where letters are used to abbreviate names like FBI, IRS, etc.) There are a few that I am understanding now, but too often I loose...

In the middle of all the posts about positive things, I hate to be such a wet blanket, but has anyone read about the possible new FDA regs up before congress?? One very unsettling part of this nonsense is that EVERY cosmetic biz, no matter what the size will have to pay a yearly registration...
