	Since NB -> nota bene translates as "note well", NBB would be "note
well well" etc. Seems that "NNB" would be more correct for emphasis --
"note note well" <G>

	Though in truth, I doubt this follows the pattern of PS -> post script,
in which PPS -> post post script does make logical sense (vs PSS -> post
script script)
