Maybe we can engineer the fear of spiders out of our systems in the future. It's one of the silliest phobias around. Also, the fear of snakes. But I'm fairly certain more people die from snake bites than spider bites, so spiders first. Even though I know I have nothing to fear from spiders, they still give me the jeeblies. For this, I am ashamed.
