Fittingly to this thread, CLO as an acronym sounds like the German word Klo, meaning toilet.

Oh man, reading people's handheld maternity notes is like reading this thread. I'm doing the bloody degree and I rarely understand more than half. And these notes are supposed to be a communication tool between the midwives, the doctors and the pregnant woman! I am hoping to continue with my refusal to buy into the cryptic midwifery code which inevitably shuts women out of their own care (and also the acronyms are not always standardised so there's a risk of error).

Makes me think of that joke from Good Morning Vietnam:
--- Quote ---Excuse me, sir. Seeing as how the VP is such a VIP, shouldn't we keep the PC on the QT? 'Cause if it leaks to the VC he could end up MIA, and then we'd all be put on KP.

...somehow, it's not nearly as funny typed out. It loses a lot without the delivery.

Considering where all our MSGs come from, this doesn't shock me.

Somehow I feel that no acronym would do justice to this German gem:
Rinderkennzeichnungs- und Rindfleischetikettierungsüberwachungsaufgabenübertragungsgesetz.
