    So why can't you actually come up with a logically consistent answer,
    rather than just dismissing it? Kids running and jumping produce
    many, many ER admissions, and they're more productive of head injuries
    than cycling spills. So why does it make sense for child cyclists but
    not child runners and jumpers to wear protective headgear? Just
    answer, rather than dismiss as "childish" or "pathetic".

    Because there is nothing to answer. I am not discussing kids running and
    jumping. I am discussing bike accidents caused by unforseen impetus.

    And as you have so much time to spend on this, do you not think your service
    to humanity would be greater by re-directing you efforts where they would do
    more good?

    Think of the Children!

    Aren't you the one who attacked Ozark for being sarcastic and insulting?

    Classic stuff...

    Sarcasm, no; insults yes - do try to keep up.

    I take it then, given the above reply, that you agree that insults are no
    replacement for data, and that you will refrain from using them in future.

    I think you are a hypocrite for jumping into an exchange in which you
    previously had not participated just to throw out a gratuitous insult, when
    just today you've repeatedly chastised others for {wait for it} posting
    insults in response to insults.

    In fact, change "I think" to I /know/...

    You didn't need to correct yourself; you've made it abundantly clear
    that you never think. :-)
