Is there some reason, other than brevity, that most everyone refers to books only by their acronym?

If this is the only reason, would some of you be so kind as to add a few of the acronyms and their meanings to this link so that the less clever of us might know what books you are referring to. Thanks

Yes, but IT = SSH. It began as a joke when people got so hyped about the release of SSH that they started calling SSH "it." ITH is not the same book as IT.

There is a partial listing of abbreviations at the bottom of the column at the left, where the various forums are listed.
