Default Abbreviations dictionary

In a recent thread I mentioned that I have a copy of an abbreviations "dictionary" that was compiled by a friend on another forum. It's very complete and I copied the 2 MicroSoft Word documents into a zip file that is just short of 1MB. If you'd like a copy, PM me here with your email and I'll send it to you.

The 2 documents are;
Genera and Intergeneric Combinations.
Orchid Genera Abbreviations Sorted by Name.

Chryss - How long ago did he put the list together, there are so many changes going on with the species, but with the hybrids, I don't think anyone can really keep up.

In a Word Document 'ctrl' + 'F' brings up a small search (find) window where you can type in "Bllra" or any other abbreviation and it will instantly find it for you !!!!

But, you all knew that, right ?!?!?!

Am I right in thinking that give the crosses, eg cross a Brassia and an Oncidium and you get a Brassidium, etc? That would be interesting... especially the ones getting more complex than my example!
