I dunno about the DOM, but a walnetto is a caramel-like candy flavored with, you guessed it, walnuts. "Care for a Walnetto, little girl," was a catch-phrase on the old "Laugh-In," spoken by Arte Johnson in his "Dirty Old Man" character. It played off the old warning from mothers everywhere about not taking candy from strangers.

I was always under the impression that DOM indeed DID mean "Dirty Old Man"

DIng-ding-ding! Ilander is correct. I remember having that same discussion in another thread, some time ago. BTW, Poo, that sig is rather... disturbing.

I can probably guess what you were thinking of Illumina because I wondered about it too at first, but then I figured out it meant Dirty Old Man.

Isn't it also a tad big?

I figured out the DOM thing at, like, three in the morning the night I posted the question. The Walnetto thing still doesn't make that much sense, but whatever.

The statement above about the very old TV program "Laugh In" really explaine it all. Us old far...er... fellows remember things like that.
