FWIW,

The above example works fine on my system (no double commas):

In[1]:= btbl2 = {{-2.95, -1.99}, {1.16284, -0.156402, 0.702541}}

Out[1]= {{-2.95, -1.99}, {1.16284, -0.156402, 0.702541}}

In[2]:= Export["btbl2.dat", btbl2]

Out[2]= "btbl2.dat"

In[3]:= btbl3 = Import["btbl2.dat"]

Out[3]= {{-2.95, -1.99}, {1.16284, -0.156402, 0.702541}}

In[4]:= $Version

Out[4]= "6.0 for Mac OS X x86 (64-bit) (February 7, 2008)"
