Yep. Returning to the theme of motorcycles, helmets that are one solid color are safer (in the sense of making you less likely to be *in* an accident, as opposed to providing better protection) than multi-colored helmets because they make your head more recognizable as a head, rather than a collection of shapes. -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
