Hmm. Anther something that should be in the FAQ if it isn't already. All
the commonly used shorthand of the list.

In this case, BBB stands for Big Black (or blue) Book, namly the main rule
book. SR plus a number (1, 2, or 3) indicates a particular edition in
general, rather than a specific book. Other book shorthand are as follows:

RBB - Rigger Black Book
R2 - Rigger 2
VR2 Virtual Realities 2.0
SSC - Street Samuri Catalog
FoF- Fields of FIRE.
MitS- Magic in the Shadows
SrC- Shadowrun companion
NAGRL- Neo Anarchist Guild to Real Life
TSS, NAGEE & NERPS - A group of net based groups of SR add ons

Probable new books:
M&M - the upcoming Man and Machine, which is expected to replace Shadowtech
and Cybertechnology
CC - the upcoming Cannon Companion which will replace the old Street Samuri
Catalog and Fields of Fire...
