In alphabetical order too I'm impressed

[Ho0tz04]

Im sure Sandee typed that out for him. Either that or he's been typing that list for a few months now.

The only thing i would correct is VDS = Volatile Dry Solvent and NVDS Non-Volatile Dry Solvent.

And I'll add one - GFBILIMPUD (Got fired because I looked in Mrs. Piffs Underwear Drawer)

[B&BGaryC]

I always thought BD meant broke dick, short for BDCC, Broke Dick Carpet Cleaner

It does Gary. But that terminology was coined by a forum that promotes that thought and that way of life. Our forum is a premium forum that was designed to take people from that perspective and raise them to money making profit building companies. So we won't include that term here. Others can have it.

So we propose the letters...RPCC...

R-Rich
P-Premium
C-Carpet
C-Cleaners...

[LamanatorBob]

LPS=LamanatorPlus System
LFR=Laminate Floor Restoration
EBSFMI=Email Bob Shepard For More Info.(sorry, shameless, I know)
