Today's words (revised)

georgic \JOR-jik\ - of or relating to agriculture

Interesting etymology.

Also, rare phobias listed here.  The only one I'll specifically mention is

ailurophobia - abnormal fear of cats

which has the related

ailurophile - lover of cats

The latter probably tend to think that the word "abnormal" in the former definition is redundant.
