BUFDRVR



Now I have to have one explained to me.


I'm guessing it's a reference to the Moscow theater hostage rescue in 2002,
where a "knockout" gas used to subdue the terrorists also killed about a
hundred and twenty hostages. It was initially thought that the gas was a
nerve agent, possibly BZ. The Russians later admitted it was fentanyl, an
opiate-like anasthetic.
