I've been going through some training material. Some of the chaper headings are enlightening:

Where does the BS come from?
What are the benefits of BS?
What companies use BS and how successful have their implementations been?
How to design and implement successful BS?

You can tell it's not an American manual.

BS is weird, it's practically a euphemism. You harldy here it in the UK where were less afraid of shit, and shit.

But do you know what BS means in this context?

No, but I'd guess British Standards.

Let me know if MF appears anywhere in the manual.

"You can tell it's not an American manual."

On the other hand, several of my American friends tell me they have BS degrees in Computer Science, Physics, things like that.
