OFF THE VINE: Jargon: we've had enough of it

<p>Vine has already vented its spleen against jargon (c.f. "Wank Word </p><p>Bingo" in the December 17 edition), and is now taking aim at acronyms </p><p>which are meaningless to approximately 99 per cent of the normal human </p><p>population. To whit: "CPM". As a public service, Vine will now convert </p><p>these acronyms into language more easily understood, yet just as </p><p>relevant. </p><p><BR><BR> </p><p>Hence, CPM now stands for "cost per Mercedes". Any others out there? </p><p><BR><BR> </p>
