Am I the only one who finds the abbreviation ORC amusing?

Of course in Colorado it's C.R.S. for Colorado Revised Statues--which also stands for "Can't Remember $#!t." (A more obscure reference so only almost as amusing.) I guess they were only unrevised the first day the legislature sat in session after Statehood in 1876.

As a D&D player in a former life and a Tolkien fan in my current one, I do occasionally chuckle (or were you thinking of something other than the mythical humanoid creature feared & loathed by humans?)

I used to play a Gray Elf fighter/magic user who had a red diamond "ORCIN" (not ORKIN) insignia on his shield....

In legal writing, the official abbreviation is just "R.C." If you feel the need to be state-specific, the Harvard Blue Book citation form is "OHIO REV. CODE." The designation "ORC" is a layman's reference used on signs and traffic tickets.

Just sayin' ...
