Sentence: Millie doesn*t trust computers. She prints out every e-mail, report and memo that comes her way.

She spends so much time sorting and filing her paper that she barely has any time to do her work as an efficiency expert.

Etymology: document (a piece of written, printed, or electronic matter that provides information or evidence or that serves as an official record) + mental (insane; crazy)

Pronunciation: ream-DUN-dant

Sentence: Tom asked Carol to print out his email, fax copies to the field office and make reamdundant copies of the faxed copy for the office files. Carol considered Tom's faxation to be just a small sample of his neurotronic diskorder. faxation = a complete misunderstanding of how faxes work (believing that the original is somehow magically sent to the other location). neurotronic diskorder = ascribing physical properties and attributes to digital files (degrading condition, "originals", organization, etc.)

Etymology: ream (a measure of quantity for paper[500 sheets]) + (re)dundant; fax + (fix)ation; neuro(tic )+ (elect)tronic; disk + (dis)order
