It is true that of the 10 most poisonous arachnids on the planet, Australia has 9 of them...

Actually, it would be more accurate to say that of the 9 most poisonous arachnids, Australia has all of them. Douglas Adams

Oh god, metaquotes is freaking me out. They're talking about spiders in Sydney. And while I've always known that Australia is home to various horrible creepy-crawlies, I've managed to not really think about it too much so far.

It's not that I'm arachnophobic. If I see a spider in my house I'll usually ignore it or put it outside. But spiders that you find in my house don't generally have the ability to KILL YOU.
