Someone recentaly asked me why engineers and science types have to abbrevate EVERYTHING.

I currently work on a program called NAIS. What is that abreviation? NPOESS ATMS Instrument Simulator. Huh, what's that abbrevation?
NPOESS = National Polar-orbiting Operational Environmental Satellite System
ATMS = Advanced Technology Microwave Sounder

So, I work on NAIS, or National Polar-orbiting Operational Enviromental Satellite System Advanced Technology Microwave Sounder Instrument Simulator. Take your pick.
