Quoting Ruben Safir (ruben-at-mrbrklyn.com):

"This word 'painless': I do not think it means what you think it means."
Did anyone else see the expression 'CRC' and think immediately of CRC Press books like the _CRC Handbook of Chemistry and Physics_? http://eimagery.crcpress.com/BQQ66_2016_Chemistry_Award_Letter.pdf https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CRC_Press
_That_ particular CRC is one of those acronyms that long ago stood for something specific (Chemical Rubber Company), but long ago divorced the acronym from its origins.
