New Vocabulary Word

We computer geeks often use language in strange ways.  For example, if something is broken, it might be because it has absorbed a bogon (which is an elementary particle of “bogusness”).  When I read this headline over at Emperor Misha’s site I was immediately reminded of this.  I therefore propose a new term:

goron: (n) An extremely massive particle of cluelessness.  Capable of extreme damage to people and institutions.  Until the year 1992 was only thought to be theoretical.  Discovery was confirmed in Florida in late 2000.

    I have seen the goron at work before. It is a fascinating particle with the most amazing combination of properties: extrememly dense, yet utterly vacuous.
