Mark On Air Tran

So I was checking out news stories on my Crackberry today and came across one about comedian/filmmaker Mark Malkoff. Apparently Mark has a severe fear of flying. Unlike most people when it comes to their phobias, Mark has decided to face his fear head-on...for a month. That's right, he is spending the entire month of June on Air Tran planes. He takes between five to twelve flights a day, so he is really digging deep into his courage!

You can check out his progress at MarkOnAirTran.  He spends his time blogging and tweeting and facebooking, etc. thanks to AirTran's wireless internet service.  For entertainment, you can watch him play Twister with fellow passengers, dance, and check to see if he can get the plane's toilet to suck down a whole roll of toilet paper.

Mark has me thinking, though.  Would I be able to face my fear for a month?  And which fear?  Could I order pizza from home every day for a month (I can order from work, but not home - go figure)?  Can I see myself having to speak in public five to twelve times a day for thirty days?  (Make me talk to complete strangers all day on the phone at work, but please don't make me give a speech to anyone - I will plead illness, I swear.)  No, I know what my TRUE phobia would be - wasps.  What if someone told me that I had to stay in a small room with a wasp or two all day long for an entire month???  Sorry, there's no way.  I start flipping out when I see a wasp, no matter what the circumstances.

But what about you guys?  Could you face your fear for a month?  What is that fear?  What would convince you it was a good idea?
