Words I Don't Know: 'O'
From the pages of my pocket-edition Webster's Dictionary:
obdurate: stubborn, unyielding
obfuscate: confuse, obscure (I know this one, but I think it's such a great word, I had to share)obloquy: abusively detractive language, discredit, disgrace
obverse: facing observer, side of coin with designobviate: to prevent by making uneccessary

I believe you've combined bits of two definitions for "obviate". The definition you list isn't quite right.
I'll let you sort it out so that you can learn something new today. :)
OK. I threw it out there as fast as I could yesterday. Thanks, Eagle-Eye! : )
It's your fault for picking the word I knew.
S'why I love my readers. So intelligent! : )
i love the 'o' pictures, if they count! and i didnt know obverse also meant:facing observer so it's a good deal
