>To me the obscure word is ron obvious.What does that mean? I can see tswum often uses it, but is this an AWAD jargon word?
in the first place, Ron Obvious was a creation of the Monty Python troupe. I adopted it as an alter alter-ego way back in the beginning (actually, it turns up via search for the first time in this thread.)
you're going to have to wait for Milo to explain his use of the term as an adjective, I fear.
-ron (much too) obvious
p.s. - see the ron obvious entry in wikipedia if you want to see an obvious example of the weakness of wiki!
