Hanlon's razor???

What did YOU write to Jcallaway about using obscure references?
Oh yes, here it is... "Using obscure literature references hardly anyone would recognise doesn't make you look clever, it makes you look like you want everyone to think you are clever."

Short, polite question: Please explain "Hanlon's razor". Who was Hanlon?

Thanks.
