uFO means unfinished object---something most of us have WAY too many of!!

By by the way,no question is silly here. There is a listing of all the abbreviations and acronyms in one of the threads here that is really helpful too.

That sure is true. Old ones are easier to remember than all those new ones including PIGS!!

Contrary to popular opinion, there are lots of silly questions. This just doesn't happen to be one of them.

The way I learned this a long time ago was the only silly question is the one you don't ask. I don't think we used the word "silly" though
