No, because there's two ISA acronyms, and on top of that I don't know 
all of the 1,000+ computer acronyms.  And after reading that it could 
be Industry Standard Architecture I still didn't know what the card 
itself does.   ISO is a "standard" as well.   :)

Not being grumpy, but I just had a mexican guy back his Ford F150 on 
TOP of the hood of my car.  I was in park, 20 feet away, he saw my 
headlights, he stopped for a second, hesitated, then GUNNED his truck 
to about 15mph, I sat on the horn but yet he spun gravel anyway until 
he hit me.  His bumper was just high enough to catch the exact spot 
where the hood meets the headlight, and his truck rode up the hood 
cutting a 1 inch gash about 2 feet long right through the hood with 
the bolt that drops from the trailer hitch.  By the time his reflexes 
kicked in, his truck was ass-end in the air and one tire was on my 
hood.  I yelled at him for about 15 seconds before I realized it 
wasn't worth it so I calmed down and we exchanged insurance info and 
all that jazz.  Luckily, it will just need a new hood and a 
grill.  Just enough of the top part of the grill surrounding the 
headlight was shattered.  "No speaka English" is all I heard until I 
started taking pictures of the damage and his lic. plate and bumper 
with my digital cam then he magically started to learn some English.
