As Mr Ross mentioned, he was originally going to call them trons, but it turns out Walt Disney has already got the rights to that name (at least in the singular) due to a famous film from the 1980s, so he went with tronnies instead.
I suspect that the name is the least of the problems with this theory, but perhaps detailed answers to a number of pending questions will change my mind. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Everything List" group.
