I am tired of trying to figure what so many obscure Icons mean. Why cant people who write instruction books, automatic machine, and other devices us their words. A simple written instruction would make much easier to understand what is intended.

Maybe Warren is speaking about folks using acronyms, Roxie.

"Use Your Words" is what I tell my grandson everyday but he is only 16 months old. He does try real hard though.
