Gon, abuse> (Sun) 1. A printer. 2. A person who wastes paper. This epithet should be interpreted in a broad sense "wasting paper" includes the production of spiffy but content-free documents. Thus, most suits are tree-killers. This term may derive from {J.R.R. Tolkien' s "Lord of the Rings" (http://sf.www.lysator.liu.se/sf_archive/sf-texts/SF_resource_guide/sfrgft.htm)}. in which Treebeard the Ent uses it to refer to the orcs' master, Saruman of Isengard. Saruman represents, among other things, technology at its most misguided. See also: dead tree. [JarGon File] (1999-11-03)
