Georgia loaded wheel tester?
Can it be added what a "Georgia loaded wheel tester" is? 71.66.97.228 07:42, 29 December 2010 (UTC)
 * That would be a job for Wikipedia. I don't know if they bother, but they should. This is the kind of thing that appears on truck trailers in the US. I always thought it meant something like "gross load weight tonnage" (not that such an expansion made any sense to me). DCDuring TALK 13:11, 29 December 2010 (UTC)

Pronunciation
Someone's added that the pronunciation is. Really? I can't imagine anyone's saying that when undefined: means "good luck with that". I know I wouldn't. Pronouncing undefined: as if it were spelled undefined: is shorter and easier. Can anyone confirm the pronunciation given, ? &#x200b;—msh210℠ (talk) 20:50, 14 July 2011 (UTC)
 * I'll just say that I have indeed heard young people pronouncing these little net-speak things. — [&#32;R·I·C&#32;] Laurent — 20:59, 14 July 2011 (UTC)
 * Yes, [[citations:oh em gee]] attests to that. But this one?? &#x200b;—msh210℠ (talk) 21:10, 14 July 2011 (UTC)
 * This looks like a good test case for initialisms, which [[initialism]] defines as an expression pronounced as the pronunciations of the letter. Perhaps there are also other things that need changing:
 * Our definition
 * Our internal definition
 * The scope of the initialism category (hardcoded) and the use of and.

 * Perhaps so. Note, though, that this entry did not have an initialism category or template until your recent edits. &#x200b;—msh210℠ (talk) 22:09, 14 July 2011 (UTC)
 * Silly me. Bad test case then. DCDuring TALK 22:17, 14 July 2011 (UTC)

"Good luck with that." Google pulls up a fair number of uses, but Google Books and Google Groups do not SFAICT. —Ruakh TALK 03:42, 11 August 2010 (UTC)
 * I've added three cites with this capitalization, and one with another, to the citations page. Please check. &#x200b;—msh210℠ (talk) 20:47, 14 July 2011 (UTC)
