mamsl means what?

I like this script a lot after a couple of days use - it does things that geocaching.com should already do and it does them well so far. Please can someone enlighten me on what mamsl means though, it's driving me nuts...thanks!

Since it was my feature request please let me answer your question.
It simply means "meters above main sea level" :-)
But the abbreviation was not my suggestion ;-)
Cheers

sorry! "metres above mean sea level" :-))

In Sweden we have a quite common and more readable abbreviation. I understand and agree that mamsl isn't understandable by most (including me before this). There has been a patch submitted that will make it easier to understand, but we have not yet released it. Waiting for some more improvements first.
