Sorry, but your opinion has no more weight than Frank's and at least Frank
is willing to discuss matters. Randy is not.

Zauman, you haven't changed in 12 years. Randy's site is even set up so that
you can't find the anti-helmet information but he puts it there in hard to
find locations so that he can say that it's really there. Avery doesn't like
helmet laws and is up front about it.
