  2. Anemophobia = Fear of Wind
    Musophobia = Fear of Mice (Latin 'mus' = Mouse)
    Barophobia = Fear or Gravity/Pressure (Baro- root)
    Potophobia = a fear of drinking alcohol
    Ochophobia = a fear of riding in vehicles

    Put the whole lot together and you are in fear of a drunken mouse driving the cab you just hired over the Golden Gate Bridge offering you a cold beer in a strong gale.
