[Corpora-List] Gender differences in language

[CRuehlemann at aol.com]

Interesting to hear someone remind others of the need to be polite when  s/he 
has just denounced someone else's contributions as logorrheic impulses.  
Below is a definition from Wikipedia:
 
Logorrhoea or logorrhea (_Greek_ 
(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Greek_language)  λογορροια,  logorrhia, “_word_ (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Word) 
-_flux_ (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flux) ”) is defined as an “excessive  flow 
of words” and, when used medically, refers to incoherent talkativeness that  
occurs in certain kinds of _mental illness_ 
(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mental_illness) , such as  _mania_ (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mania) .
