   Think of any three-digit number, then select the corresponding buzzword
from each column.  For instance, number 257 produces, "systematized logical
projection", a phrase that can be dropped into virtually any report with
that ring of decisive, knowledgeable authority.  No one will have the
remotest idea of what you're talking about, but the important thing is that
they're not about to admit it.
