The more wonderful you think helmets are, the more strongly you should
oppose mandatory helmet laws.

You can't mandate the wearing of helmets without creating a legal
definition of the word "helmet" -- thereby banning all helmets that
don't precisely match that definition.

You haven't been paying attention, Joy. There are now those that want to
mandate your speech and societal values although I do admit it's fun to be
scanctimonious about helmets, patch kits, rear view mirrors and things now
and again.

It's fun to tell others what to do...isn't that why we have children?

Like me and my 27" tire fixation. Let this 700C fad (and disc <disk?>
brake) fad end, already!

Just kidding, everybody, in case I have to actually say it.
