Now what the hell is the DAAD?

I've been so busy with the money crisis in the US I've been ignoring the Thai news far a while.
Looks like someone has been fishing in their alphabet soup again.

The PAD, DAAD, PPP, TRT...OPEC, NATO..... SPECTRE...I'm just a bit worn out with all these capital letters right now.

Decent Americans Against Democracy - it's Henry Cate's group

I was chatting online with a University Student this morning in BKK and he is not aware of any demonstrations. He is as usual busy with his classes and home work. He was just getting ready to go for his English class. Neither the Bangkokpost has reports on such demonstrations. May I have more clarification please

Have you heard of TLA - a friend of mine saw it in a list of acronyms recently?
