Actually, saying ATM machine is fine. You are allowed to use the last word of an acronym after the acronym itself, but not a synonym. For example, you can say OPEC countries, but OPEC nations is incorrect. I think you're old enough to remember the SALT talks?

Well I'll be! I didn't know it was correct form. I always thought it was wrong to do that, including your examples. Learn something new.

I thought the 24HR clock and 12HR clock were pretty much interchangeable. They are both commonly used in the UK, but timetables etc stick to 24HR to avoid any confusion. |

As an adult, I would prefer having daylight after work. I hate feeling like the day has been entirely used up while I was stuck in the office. I'm not a morning person so I don't care if it's dark then. I would really hate to have it dark at 3:30 in the afternoon! I'm glad I'm in the south. |
