All of the aruguing aside, can anybody out there tell me a little of
the history of QNH, QFE, and QNE (etc.), specifically, WHAT does the
"Q" stand for??? The "F"? The "N", the "H" or the "E"???

Nothing. It's just a code, the Q-code, to be precise :-) Maybe the Q has
a story, I don't know, but the latter two letters definitely do not.
Think of it as a numbered set of commonly used phrases.

A complete list of all Q-codes is at http://www.htc.ch/de/der_Q_code.htm
(German only).

Don't forget the Z codes.
