    Actually , the correct term for the attraction or absorbtion of moisture from the atmosphere by paints etc is Hygroscopic.

    Ah man this is too confusing. My wife is a medical scientist as well as a photographer. She says the following....get a life(referring to me).
    according to Biology by Campbell
    hydrphobic is any substance that will not dissolve in water or have an affinity for it.
    according to Biology by Campbell
    hydrophilic is any substance that has an affinity for water e.g. cotton which absorbs water.
    But I can't be bothered going any further. The rabies thing is an association to the fact that patients can't drink water due to the pain in there throat. Hence the connection to the scientific definition.
