I suspect this is the only group that might (or might not) appreciate
this.

Top 10 acronyms for "NT"


10) "New Technology"
9) "Not There"
8) "No Templates"
7) "New Threshold (of pain)"
6) "No Thriller"
5) "Not Thrifty"
4) "Novel Three-ring-circus"
3) "Needs Tape"
2) "Never Tries"

and the top acronym for NT.... (drum roll)

1) "Neighboring Teratogenic".

Adjectival form of _teratogen_ = Any agent, such as the drug thalidomide
or X-radiation, that induces abnormalities in a developing foetus.
(quote from RD's Universal Dictionary)
