OK then, if we're gonna start down THAT road...
has anyone ever heard of an "ID 10 T" error?
if you don't get it, write it on a piece of paper.

Or, favorites among my fellow Help desk staffers...
"It's an IBM error" (Idiot Behind the Machine)
"That's an FDU problem" (F***ing Dumb User)
When we had to include a special file in our software a while ago, and needed to give it a 'technical' sounding name, we named it 'MS-FDU.ocx', in honor of all our wonderful clients!

when working with TLAs and ETLAs never forget about ATLAs or Abbreviated Three Letter Acronyms (ex. PS)

Symbols wouldn't be copyrighted... they would be trademarked. So there cannot be a © on ©, but there might be a â„¢ on â„¢.
