Well Rherts, what can I say other than at least one of us is still young enough to remember the difference between a perceived fear and one your parents or guardian tells you IS real.
For instance, I can remember being terrified after watching Jaws for the first time and making my parents let me sleep in the bed with them, but that in no way shape or form meant I thought a giant fish was going to eat me in the middle of Natchitoches.
My irrational fear is no where near in comparison to someone like my father telling me I'll get shot in the head if I stand up.
