It's obvious that this will be grabbed by idiotarians and, thus, polluted, though. ;-)

I always liked "ideatarian" as, if not exactly the opposite of an idiotarian, at least something that I would much rather be.

Ghod forbid one should be so sissy as to try to see past the obvious.

Anton, the objection is not to those who "see beyond the obvious," but to those who deny the obvious.
