I don't believe it's been posted here yet, but _wonk_ is also apparently a
verb, at least in wonk circles.  Krugman writes today (
http://www.nytimes.com/2008/06/27/opinion/27krugman.html?hp):

Whether that's happening now is a subject of highly technical dispute.
(Readers who want _to wonk_ themselves out can go to my blog,
