I guess we can safely rely on the Yanks to corrupt everything with which
they come into contact.

Colin,
Actually it is not Jizz but GISS, which stands for General Impression  
Shape and Size, which was a system used by the British in WW2 for  
enemy aircraft identification. Jizz is an American corruption  
(another one) that has developed amongst US birders.
Cheers,
Carl Clifford
