WBG---

Thanks for the help, but I didn't say it was unfair or incorrect (not in brown), and I had the period to show it was an abbreviation.  I just thought it outre.  I mean, when was the last time you saw it?

Sorry, didn't know wrong was noted in brown.  I don't think I've ever seen it in an original, current usage, just in excerpts from old documents.
