hi Mitch!
did you miss where i said i didn't see any further point in this?
seems we've both made our perspectives known, and i can only imagine
that most of the rest of the list is as bored with this as i've become,...
if you honestly wanted to find data on this, you could. i can
certainly find arguments either way and don't necessarily agree with
everything in any of them; but there's a lot more than "none" on both
sides. find it, read it, agree with it or not; but don't expect to be
taken seriously if you're going to say there's "none".
i'll note that now you're narrowing down your objection to brain
injury, even though that's also my personal primary concern. if that's
all you're concerned with that's great, whether we agree on anything
else or not... but we have to acknowledge that that's not all everyone
is concerned with.
if your own personal experience isn't enough to encourage you that
your brain might be worth trying to protect and you're not going to
learn from the experience of anyone else, and you're not going to even
acknowledge any of the studies already out there that you can find with
about 0.35 seconds of searching, do your own study. you don't even need
to drop your head from 6', just stand next to a brick wall and bang your
head on it. as i've said before, i support your right to choose if you'd
rather have a helmet on it or not, but if you're going to try to tell me
you'd rather not have a helmet on, there's definitely no point in trying
to discuss this any further. ;-P
cheers!

Cite one. Note that I said 'serious injury'. I meant brain injury, not

And expect to be laughed at if any Seattle swindlers named Thomspon or
Rivara or Rivara are involved.

with or without whatever you choose to wear on it.
there's a lot more data than "none" out there supporting the
position that helmets provide protection, so we might have different
definitions of the word "meaningful". you're obviously determined to
hold your obvious bias, so i don't see any further point in trying to
point out the error in that.
