Hmm--I read Dr. Bill's post as having an emphasis on the word thought, as in (aha), "I thought the second half of "bibliobibuli" was a play on
"bibulous" meaning addicted to alcohol."

Edit--I find that I tend to give Dr. Bill a bit of extra leeway regarding errors: in addition to not seeing anything very well, he posted one time that he has particular difficulty reading text in blue.

Hello Biblio!
Welcome aBoard! You started an interesting thread on your first try - congratulations. Do stay with us and contribute.
often.
One thing that interests me : did you lurk about and read before jumping in or did you just leap off the end of the pier, so to speak, as I did?
