For anyone curious, MCMC = "Markov chain Monte Carlo" - the article doesn't actually tell you what it stands for until a number of paragraphs down.

(This is a massive pet peeve of mine - if you are going to call something "X for dummies", don't bury the lede! Tell me what "X" is as soon as possible, especially if it's an acronym!)
