 ====== Stephen's Coding Standards ======
 ===== Commented Code =====
-No commented code, unless there is a comment clearly explaining under what circumstances the code should be uncommented. The YAGNI principle should be kept in mind. If there are no circumstances in which the code should be uncommented, it should be deleted.
+No commented code, unless there is a comment clearly explaining under what circumstances the code should be uncommented. The <html><acronym title="You Ain't Gunna Need It">YAGNI</acronym></html> principle should be kept in mind. If there are no circumstances in which the code should be uncommented, it should be deleted.
 **Justification:** Commented code adds no value to the source. It does not clarify or explain functionality. It is old rubbish that should be removed. Source control is for looking at old code.
