What's with Monte Cook's obsession over iron?

[Driddle]

I was just perusing the Monte Cook "design diary" page and couldn't help but notice his preoccupation with iron: Iron Lore, Book of Iron Might, the Ironborn, Vitamin/Iron Supplements, Ironing Laundry ...

Does anyone know if perhaps he has stock in an iron production company or something?

The truth? Mearls claims that he (Mearls) is stinky about coming up with names, and he had to name Iron Lore licketty-split.

Ah.
So top of this year's Christmas list: "Monte - a thesaurus."

No, Mike Mearls needs the Thesaurus. Though if you wanted to get a matching pair, so Monte doesn't feel left out...
