There is a glossary under the help tab in the top toolbar.

Not really on-topic for Communitybuzz! so I'll move over to suggestions.

If anyone finds words that should be in the glossary and are not there, please send a note to IBobi who can add them.

Never heard of that particular acronym on the, what, seven years I've been around here. It may be a very specific acronym used in a very narrow context, which may be why it isn't in the glossary.

Can you post a link to where it was used?

Some individual forums have their own list of acronyms unique to that forum.

Here's a glossary of acronyms, for example, unique to travel safety/security.

Good point!

The RR forum's acronym list is in the Wiki FAQ.

I planned on sending IBobi a note, but thought best to take a look/see... just for fun.

Imagine my surprise when I saw that the glossary is up to date.

BRT: The long running "Brooklyn Reality Tour." Local neighborhood guide and friend of all frequent flyers, dhammer53, has hosted this almost annual event to the haunts of his youth in the Brooklyn neighborhoods. From Coney Island to the frequent stops for local foods and deserts, this has always been popular when offered.
