    I think 'omniphile' works better. ;)

      Well, the "holo" part of hologram comes from Greek for "whole". So I'm guessing holophile is someone who loves everything?

      Ahhh, that makes sense. I did consider 'love of holograms' but dismissed it as not really practical with today's technology, we'll have to wait for star trek style holodecks. ;) Let down by my insufficient knowledge of Greek.

          I believe that an Omniphile is a sexual deviant, someone who would have sex with a table or Ford Fiesta. That kind of thing. Just my interpretation you understand. Whereas Holophile is a lover of (w)holes! :)

                          I will look away for a few minutes whilst you go do what you need to do with that table. Mind you it is a good looking table, you wouldn't want an ugly one!

                            It is a handsome table, but the hole is, like, freakin' massive. I can't even imagine the technicalities of such an act.

                              I think it is an 'adequate' hole.

                                          "Omniphile" is an unholy combination of Latin and Greek. I would prefer "pantophile" if it didn't give another altogether incorrect impression! [later] It turns out someone already thinks it's a proper word. The Complete Idiot's Guide to Philosophy has 'Because of his wide-ranging interests, Diderot was nicknamed "Pantophile," which means lover of everything.' Excuse the American punctuation - I'm quoting! [/later]
