That does seem unusual, as I remember in the last #00 issue of Batman or
Detective (the one where Killer Croc and every Batman villain from here to
Toledo are trying to kill the Caped C) that Catwoman and Talia both find the
Batcave on their own (and at the end, Bruce packs 'em both up in an
automobile and sends them away -- I imagine he brought them up through the
grandfather clock).  However, I haven't been reading Batman stories for a
while, so I'm not to him on this...

Jeez, that IS a surprise, though I thought this would probably happen
sometime, as Gordon has made hints over the years that he had deduced it.
