I was having trouble with my computer. So I called John, the 11 year old next door whose bedroom looks like Mission Control, and asked him to come over..
John clicked a couple of buttons and solved the problem.
As he was walking away, I called after him, "So, what was wrong?"
He replied, "It was an ID ten T error."
I didn't want to appear to stupid, but nonetheless inquired, "An, ID
ten T error? What's that? In case I need to fix it again."
John grinned. "Haven't you ever heard of an ID ten T error before?"
"No," I replied.
"Write it down," he said, "and I think you'll figure it out."
So I wrote down: I D 1 0 T
I used to like the little shit.

Someone who shall remain nameless replied, "India Delta One-Zero Tango."
He used it all day and never caught on.
