Dear etaoin: speaking of caves, I wonder what our speleologist, milum, is up to these days.
When I got down to "claustrophobia" I was reminded of story in TIME early in WWII. In a survey of London, a questionnaire had to be filled out for each person in every
air-raid shelter district. One district had 100% of women
claiming they suffered from claustrophobia. When questioned,
the interviewer for that district said she had toled all the women that 'claustrophobia' meant "fear of confinement".
