Sorry, i grew up around them and im not young by any means. My dad worked in the very early computer field for a looooooong time and ive been around them my whole life.
To me, the terminology i used is like telling someone its a "busy" signal on a phone. I just got lucky and learned a tiny bit about forum administration a year or so ago and had to do a small site upgrade. Man was i scared to death i was going to fubar it.
