i remember being asked that question when getting my driver's license (they rattle that off with a list of about 10 other questions.) i always say, "no" because that's what i'm supposed to say, but i always feel like i am lying. i had to answer that on a job application recently.
they should be worried about those who have a mental illness and aren't aware of it.
with national events, at least PTSD seems more understood these days (ie: i don't get looked at like "funny, you couldn't have been in vietnam.") i think people get scared by what they just don't understand.
