I've known the saying for as long as I can remember, though I don't recall
ever seeing the acronym before.
Actually, I deplore the use of long acronyms that frequently mean little or

I despise acronyms myself. I never know what someone is referring to,
especially the example put forth on the list. Stating that there was no
such thing as a free lunch would have been better and understood my more
readers of the list.
