3. Simple
A pant is one half of a pair of pants.

A Gannt chart is used for scheduling tasks. (See my original message for an example.)

4. Got it.
Why do they call it a "pair of pants" if there is only one?

Harvey B. Gantt
Public Service:
Harvey Gantt was the first African-American elected to the office of Mayor in Charlotte. In 1974 Gantt was chosen to fill the seat of Fred Alexander, the first black on the City Council, when he was elected to the N.C. Senate. Gantt was then elected to Council in 1975 for the 1976-77 term. He was again re-elected At-Large for the 1977-79 term. In 1981-83 he served as Mayor Pro Tem and served as Mayor from 1983-87.

5. Ha!
I'm a project manager, so I see a lot of Gantt charts. One time I made one for a dinner party we threw, and my husband laughed at me forever about it! But it totally made sense to me!
