I've been working this afternoon on schedules and plans for a new air traffic control project -- the one with the pushy outside consultant (JL). It's part of a larger new program called "Transforming the National Airspace System (TNAS)". No one likes this acronym, and higher-ups want something different. The leading candidate: "Project Janus". They're thinking in terms of looking forward and backward. I keep thinking of the local leather support group that goes by the same name, and have to keep stifling giggles in meetings...

It's pretty bad using either name. "TNAS" could be plural for "TNA" or "Tits and Ass". Janus has its own issues. I recommend TMHC, if you can figure out how to apply "The Mile High Club". =P

It's good the drilling projects weren't named this -- you guys had a hard enough time keeping straight faces with all the talk of "dry-drilling".

(nods sagely) without lubrication... try saying that in a meeting with a straight face. Let alone discussing shafts, or sizes...

Heh. Amusing, but even higher management would figure out that one...
