> bleep (bleep) n., v. Maybe. Bleep and beep are hard to distinguish meaningfully. Relevant definitions are 1 & 4 and tend to suggest that a bleep is a continuous tone rather than a series of tones. Truth be known, few people are liable to worry if beep, bleep, or several of my suggestions were used.
