So when it's
obvious that something
may happen, that's not saying the same thing as that it's obvious that the event is
not impossible, not forbidden? Meanwhile, whenever I see the word "obvious" it means the person to whom it's obvious
is sure. If you're not sure, it ain't obvious. But it's
always obvious that a kick
may occur, unless "may" has also taken on a new meaning.
