Can someone explain some abbreviations for me please?

#1 27th March 2009, 7:02 PM

I have been reading alot of posts and don't know what some of the abbreviations stand for.

I would appreciate if someone could tell me what some of them mean.

EV, ROI, STT

Can't think of anymore I didn't understand right now but if you could also suggest some more that would be great.

Kinda embarrassing but I'll only have to ask once!!
