TFP stands for

It was hardly ever spelled out, but TFP stood for "Twin Fucking Peaks". The earlier project name was Twin Peaks, after the TV show. TP wasn't a very good acronym, so TFP was used instead. I have never heard the expression "Tremendous Floating Point" before reading it just now, and I worked on the project from Feb 1991 to conclusion.
