Trikki Beltran's bad concussion and his helmet
Per Tom Kunich:
That reminds me of people out in the higher priced neighborhoods in Connecticutt always destroy the road signs so people cannot find their way around their areas and stay away. Small thinking. In certain areas around where we live, they have it down pat. Keep the street sign in place, but give a street 3 names: the name that shows up on a map, the name on the street sign, and the name that the residents use to refer to the street. -- PeteCresswell |

Welcome. Thanks. My feet were already wet in the shallow end. As for the other I learned plenty and made my own ideas clearer to myself. Hope others derived benefit, if simply a good laugh. -- Michael Press |

Trikki Beltran's bad concussion and his helmet
I submit that on or about Thu, 25 Aug 2005 03:08:03 GMT, the person
known to the court as SMS made a statement in Your Honour's bundle) to the following effect: Naturally, since you apparently sincerely believe that you are one of Earth's greatest experts on everything, it is inconceivable that your cherished beliefs could be anything less than Revealed Truth. Beliefs need to be based on more than what you wish were true, or what you have personally experienced. Indeed. Which is why the likes of Frank and I have repeatedly asked you to cite some actual evidence to support your idea that certain types of lighting system are unsafe. Thus far you have consistently failed to do so. If you want to base your beliefs on lighting, on the lack of statistics that compare accidents, injuries, and fatalities versus no lighting, 3W lighting, and more powerful lighting, then indeed you could come to the conclusion that you so desperately desire. But basing your conclusion on the lack of statistics is not proof of anything. Where there are no statistics, you have to look at other ways of determining the optimal equipment. Which would make sense if it wasn't for the fact that /you/ are the one making the assertions, therefore /you/ are the one who bears the burden of proof. So, you state that certain types of lighting system are inadequate, but you appear to base that solely on personal prejudice. You say personal experience and opinion count for nothing, but the only backup you've provided thus far is selectively quoting those whose opinions agree with you, while making disparaging remarks about those who disagree (such as manufacturers of city bikes and Audax UK). Where is the externally verifiable evidence which you acknowledge above is necessary? As it happens I am not aware of any conclusive evidence that lights make any difference at all to safety, let alone dynamo vs. rechargeable lights, so I'd be interested to see the citations on this. Guy -- May contain traces of irony. Contents liable to settle after posting. http://www.chapmancentral.co.uk 85% of helmet statistics are made up, 69% of them at CHS, Puget Sound |
