"For Your Information"

Hey dude,
It means "For your edification".
Why the initial I to stand for "edification"? Good question.

edification comes from the Latin =E6dificare, meaning "to build". (Think: edifice)
=E6 (i.e. 'ae' if my newsreader messes up the posting) is pronounced "i" as in "aisle"

It stands for 'For your information, not that you asked'.
