My apologies; I've been using them for years, and didn't consciously
realize that they may not be generally accepted or known.
PD/PI: Private Detective/Private Investigator.
PD standing alone may also be Police Department.
CT: Classic Traveller
MT: MegaTraveller
TNE: Traveller: The New Era
RTT: Mongoose Traveller. RTT1 and RTT2 refer specifically to first and
second editions, respectively; without the number, it refers to
"either or both". It derives from the title of a story in Kipling's
/Jungle Book/, "Rikki-Tikki-Tavi", a story about a mongoose (whose
motto was "run and find out"). I dislike the other common abbreviation
for Mongoose Traveller, MgT.
CE: Cepheus Engine
