The only stupid question is the one you don't ask.

Re: Questions you think are too stupid to ask!

How about AVO? I believe it is actually AVO, not A.V.O., but I've always said it wrong.

Re: Questions you think are too stupid to ask!

CAO is Cano A Ozgener, AVO is Avo Uvezian ( spelling? )

+1 on the only stupid question is the one that isn't asked.

Re: Questions you think are too stupid to ask!

CAO is C. A. O. It got it's name from the creator: Cano A. Ozenger (he is also the one pictured on the CAO 65th)

Avo (as someone said is pronounced short on the A ... Ah-Voe).. it also stands for it's creator Avo Uvezian.

Both Cano and Avo are Armenian.

Re: Questions you think are too stupid to ask!

Is Oliva pronounced like olive with an a at the end? Or is it Ohleeva?

Re: Questions you think are too stupid to ask!

it is pronounced "Oh Lee Vah"

And let's get this one out of the way before it's asked..

It is not Don "Pep In" Garcia..

it is Don "Pep Een" Garcia.
