Thanks Bryan, and everyone else. <br>
<br>
I have made changes to the post the best I could understand from the
feedback I received. More feedback is always helpful as I am
learning the interface as well as trying to make the content of the
article technical yet pleasurable to read for the casual reader.<br>
<br>
Thank you,<br>

now that things have calmed down, I did not mention it to

used DNF yet and any help will be beneficial since the

<div>I asked if it was a NASCAR thing bc if DNF
means did not finish, it must have something
to do with racing. I have a lot of experience
in running and the leagues and road races I've
ran in never used the term afaik. I have also
watched the Boston Marathon in person more
than once and I've never heard the term. So I
thought maybe it was from auto racing, and I
thought Bryan was from NC where NASCAR is
quite popular so maybe it is a regional term.
There was no negative connotation meant by
asking if it was associated with NASCAR, I was
just grasping at straws since I'd never heard
of it.</div>

<div>I have seen it in horse racing and car racing in
many forms. </div>

<div>Does it have bad connotations? Yes but if you go
look for how people will make up bad connotations
for any letter combination (First Out on Race Day,
Garbage Machine, Infernal Bowel Movement, Cheesey
Data Corporation, etc.) The best way to deal with it
is know that it has one and then make fun of it
before the other guys do.</div>

<div>Either way it really seems like racing
jargon to me, not part of the general lexicon,
and not really a concern. If it is a concern
the correct place to bring it up is with the
developers, not here. </div>
