thanks for tracking that down -- I'm adding bibulous to my list, but won't remove the misspelled version for now in case it guides any other imbibers:)

It's bibulous - I've never heard the word, but knew it must be related to imbibe, &c., so that gave me search fodder!

A long time ago, I worked in a lab and we had packets of biblious paper. The paper was good at absorbing things. I thought, and think, the word is funny, but it doesn't seem to be defined in many (any?) dictionaries. So, either I've got the spelling wrong, or it's a specialized term. Does anyone else know about this word?
