By the way - what do the "BT" and "NNNN" stand for ?

At www.acronymsearch.com I found the following for "BT"

  BT Bathythermal/Bathythermograph
  BT Begin Text
  BT Bit Test
  BT Block Termination
  BT Block Transfer
  BT Baghdad Time [+0200]
  BT Byte This [slang]
  BT Bering Time [-1100]
  BT British Telecom
  BT brain tumor [medical]
  BT Burst Tolerance
  BT (USN Rating) Boiler Technician
  BT Baggage Tag
  BT Baronet
  BT Basic Training

The only one that might make sense on this list is "Byte This" :-)  Though
sometimes when tempers are flaring "Burst Tolerance" would work. I suppose
at a sensor company "Boiler Technician" might be possible (though I doubt
it). Or maybe "Bathythermal/Bathythermograph" since I don't have a clue what
that is, so it could be related to sensors. I doubt for "Basic Training"
they are talking about the computer language.

Obviously none of the acronym search engines I tried are complete. Since
none of them found "Bacillus thuringiensis", a bacteria which attacks
caterpillars and is often used as form of natural pest control.

Only www.webopedia.com found "bt" as the web extension for the country of
"Bhutan".

I tried three different Acronym search engines and did not find anything for
"NNNN". Google finds lots of pages with "NNNN". But most of them appear to
be PDF documents and the "NNNN" seems to be part of the internal Adobe
Acrobat coding. There are also several Unicode Georgian "UC-NNNN" pages. I
did not see one explaining what "NNNN" might be in the context of a
signature though.

(My apologies to Tracy for my having a little fun with this. I'm just trying
to stave off the midweek panic when I realize how much real work I need to
do. Please accept this in the spirit of fun with which it is intended.)
