OK, hands up, apologies for the assumption everyone would know what a 
BTI is/was, as far as I can remember this was my first attempt at 
writing an article for anything :-)
In my defence, I was asked to keep the text as short as possible due 
to space restrictions while still giving the story, and think if I 
had gone into much detail on what a BTI was it would possibly have 
been 'trimmed' anyway.
