Harry, I am told that when the arpa net first started, messages had to be appreviated to keep down costs. There is a "big list" of common abbreviations: which "IIRC" is only one. If you "google on "IIRC + definition" it will return as top enty:
Gopher: Definition Menu for IIRC. ... To find Gopher browsers, click here. Gopher: Definition Menu for IIRC. Definitions for 'IIRC' in database 'jargon', All 1 definitions on a single page, plain. . gopher.quux.org:70/pygfarm/dict.pyg%3F/ jargon/DEFINE/IIRC - 3k - Cached - Similar pages
There are other lists -- some in German which I have found helpful. HTH, Viel SpaB ~Gar
