What the fuck? if the UI for the script doesn't make clear that an 
acronuym has been added even though running whats gives no clue 
whatsoever that it has, it is natural to try to enter it. the UI 
gives no clue that adding an acronym is a process that generates an 
email to anyone, let alone who. this is exceedingly poor.

Very annoyed.
