 This is a good point -- I think Ron is an *unconscious* Seer, so the 
 moments when
 his "Seer-ness" comes out are not when he's consciously making a prediction 
or
 judgement, but when he's making a "random" statement like a joke. >>


Or perhaps Ron's talent isn't that he's seeing the future, but by putting 
these thoughts out in the universe, he's actually causing them to occur.
