Deaths when not using helmet

[Angelfishsolo]

I wish you would make up your mind , you dismissed the OPs post as rubbish and now you claim its a scientific discussion, you say that Scientists are used to people mixing up Scientific English and Common English, that infers vested interest and you casually dropped in that you were studying for an exam, in an attempt" possibly unconcious" to show that you were more knowledgeable,regarding Global Warming ,also "try and get your facts right" is the end of one sentence and "careful your ignorance is showing" is another, signified by the full stop in between, part quoting again. As to nose counting I was expressing disappointment to AFS that he had been drawn down to your level. that is why I answered your posts separately and used full quotes.

re: being drawn down to his level. How so?

I have the feeling that you have never studied science beyond O level? Can I suggest you read my comment about scientific certainty ?

So you don't talk down to people, can I suggest you read your own posts before you make such statements.

Because I think that you are much more reasoned in your views than LYB, and are at least open to other lines of discussion which he is not.
In his mind "one size","Science", fits all.
As for the claim of"Paranoia" It has not taken much ,to go back a few pages and find all the proof needed to prove my point, he does talk down to people, and his use of picking out bits of peoples posts,"out" of context prove it.

Thanks for the first part. The paranoia bit is kinda true. It is an internet forum and from time to time most of us will come under fire for a comment or believe. They are NOT out to get you mate

You are free to provide some data to back up,your beliefs.

It is simple -unless you are pro helmet you are the Antichrist, the logic goes like this:

Poster 1:Helmets protect you from facial injuries

Poster 2: Oh no they don't, the British Dental Association for instance is campaigning for more facial protection as present hamlets are inadequate.

Poster 1: You are only saying that because you are anti-helmet, hate anybody who wears a helmet, and want to see anyone who wears a helmet burnt at the stake

Errrrr those were questions,not statements.

If this was intended to be a question you should start," Have you ever studied Science" etc, etc, or," Did you ever study Science" etc, etc. "I have the feeling" is not a question, you could say "I have the feeling its going to rain" is that a question?
As far as I am concerned that is the end of this conversation, it is turning into a personal row , and I have no wish for that. say what you like I shall not respond in future, unless it addresses the Op.

Well I think that I found enough evidence to back me up, but It would be nice to get back to the subject raised by the OP.

These threads always take this type of turn. Nothing you can really do about it

No, "I have the feeling its going to rain" is not a question, there is no question mark!

Can I obtain mesh anywhere which would be suitable for stopping flies etc entering a helmet , if a person chose to wear one that is ? plus, anyway of cutting down on the wind noise ?.

Its what happens when you put the faith based community up against the evidence based community.

Actually in this case it is what happens when evidence is used and then discredited by other evidence.

Some of the Met helmets have mesh in the forward facing vents

As does my Lidl / Aldi Bike Mate one. I think the Bell helmets have that mesh as well.
