    I think it's traditional to include military intelligence and business ethics on lists like this. Civil war, safety hazard, charm offensive, old news, pianoforte, and Microsoft Works are other possibilities.

    I am considering creating an account with the user name 'anyone'. If I do will this would make 'open list' on Wordie into an oxymoron?

    I fail to find the oxymoron in civil engineer, let alone understand the last comment.

    EW: I think gangerh means that the comment just under the list title ("This is an open list, anyone can contribute.") will take on added--possibly different--meaning if a user named "anyone" appears.

    This list shows that some oxymorons are more oxymoronic than others
