My dictionary says:
logy
adj.
3gi[er, 3gi[est 5< ? Du log, heavy, dull [Colloq.] dull or sluggish, as from overeating

So logology could mean "dull or sloggish from too many words". Hasn't happened to me..

and may it NEVER happen to you, dear Bill! (somehow I can't imagine it!)

Let us go in peace to love and serve the board.
