The wife was checking on some misc home medical remedy in the Doctor's Book
of Home Remedies when she laughed and mentioned that there was a phobia
relating to the "fear of rust." It's called Iophobia. A quick search in the
webcrawler revealed little on phobias, Iophobia, or rust.  There is a site
called RustNet(tm) a commercial server out of Michigan. If interested it's
at http://www.rustnet.com. Not worth tripping over to get at but OK.

I privately wondered if the fear of "Rusty" would be closer to eieiophobia.

I smell a thread brewing... ;)
