Need some assistance from down there in OZ!

I'm running a survey thread over in Foo. It concerns phobias, and it's for my Psychology class. It basically, is a statistical study of some common phobias. Help a poor old overaged Yank college student out! Go over there and post into the survey and click the closest option for you!

hmm, there's a couple of things on your list that I'm not a great fan of, but none of it worries me enough to be classed as a phobia... sorry Tom

Well, I suppose it would definitely be a phobia, after all, it is an unreasonable fear!

Now if it was Bush-o-phobia, it would be perfectly natural!

Is Vickeyphobia recognized as well? Just askin'

Down relative to me! We all reference the world relative to our perspective!
