Hmmm.... in my days, FI means "Fuel Injection". Or am I dating myself and I should just hang around the "vintage" forum?

In the interest of precision in language, and to be a pedantic PITA (an acronym, by the way) I'm obliged to point out that the representative initials must be pronounable as a "word" to be an acronym. E.g., FBI is not an acronym. CART is. RSVP (respondez, sil vous plait) no. FAQ yes.
