Let's settle the Nighthawk Black Pearl acronym.

I say NBP, but other say NHBP. :shrug:

Snap Fit · #24 (**permalink**) 02-26-2008, 05:40 PM

In some older literature It was called Night Hawk Black Pearl, most now or most in general have Nighthawk Black Pearl.

And I think some use the acronyms with in part the syllables, like a hybrid abbreviation.

either way we know what it is (atleast in this case anywho)

I still need some assistance on my other post...????
anybody??? maybe a mod?

or should I seek help from a higher source? *looks up at the sky*
