Drop the a,b,c... just timestamp it.

  Leads to longer timestamps though, when you include the HHMM. If you're generally not doing more than one per day, this makes it a little easier - usually six digits instead of ten.

    If only we had access to some kind of machine that made dealing with long numbers easy.

      Except that a hotfix number is a human-interaction number, not an automation device. Speaking as someone who has worked on the support phones, I'd much, much, much rather someone only have to read back a six-digit number than a ten-digit one.
