"Thus, when a contract is unambiguous, 'we refuse to indulge in judicial activism' by 'construing the [contract] beyond its clear and obvious language ....' See Heller v. Equitable Life Assurance Soc'y, 833 F.2d 1253, 1257 (7th Cir. 1987)." ''Grun v. Pneumo Abex Corp.'', 163 F.3d 411, 420 (7th Cir. 1998).
