As we "Senior"Surfers know, sometimes we have trouble with ourcomputers.
I had a problem yesterday, so I called Eric, the 11 year old next door, whose bedroom looks like Mission Control and asked him to come over.
Eric 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 stupid, but nonetheless inquired,
'An, ID ten T error? What's that? In case I need to fix it again.'
Eric 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:
ID10T
I used to like Eric, the littlebugger.

True story. Saw a motorbike earlier this year with one of the new alpha-numeric regos as per cars. It was 1D 1OT. Don't know whether the rider chose it or it was the next issue.
When I saw the topic name, I thought you were trying to be politically correct. Then I noted that you hadn't left a letter out and the story aligned with the topic.
