Youve got to hold and give
But do it at the right time
You can be slow or fast
But you must get to the line
Theyll always hit you and hurt you
Defend and attack
Theres only one way to beat them
Get round the back
Catch me if you can
Cos Im the england man
And what youre looking at
Is the master plan
We aint no hooligans
This aint a football song
Three lions on my chest
I know we cant go wrong

this song kicks ass.
I like john barnes
i like new order
i like football
and this song makes me like england.
(if only i could kill frank lampard.)

[s]Lots of polymers dissolve very easily in certain solvents. For example, if you place a polystyrene coffee/tea cup into a petri dish with a thin layer of acetone (I think) the whole thing just sinks in and totally disappears into a goo.

A similar thing will happen, but obviously not to the same extent, if the adhesives contain anything that will react with the surface of the helmet.

I don't know anything specific, but the stickers that come with the helmet are going to be made with an adhesive that won't react, or that does react but the rate of reaction is so slow that the helmet will be knackered before the consequences of the reaction are noticeable.

I thought if you got polystyrene balls and put them in a bucket of petrol they dissolved, and if you kept doing it till no more would dissolve the petrol/polystrene mix would be thick and sticky. And you would have made napalm.

27 is old?? don't kid yourself, once you turn 35, you'd says the same thing, 40, ditto, 45, again, 55, again, until you finally reach 60+ is when you finally realised you're actually old.

probably weird coming from a 23 years old but I used to have a girlfriend who's 15 years older than me once.

Hey man, your as old as you feel, and my knees feel baaad.

Man people get really angry when they just think about about putting a helmet on! I never wore one because I think they look ugly, but now I'm old (27) and frail I find falling off really hurts.
I fall off my bike lots (so I wear a helmet) cos I'm really clumsy and if its a choice between checking out a girl/bike/motorbike on the other side of the street or straight ahead, I'll invariably cycle into the kerb or a parked car!
I'd like some knee pads too but I can't afford any yet.

The blame of the incident as you put it - and i take it you mean who was to blame for the occurence of a collision - has not been turned onto the cyclist and nor do i suggest it should.
It is the blame for the INJURY WHICH COULD HAVE BEEN PREVENTED which should lie with the cyclist.
In the building site case i gave earlier i do not know if it is a LAW that you have to wear toecapped boots on a building site but i would not imagine so.
The issue here is not civil liberties it is responsibility for ones own actions.
People who refuse to take responsibilty for their actions are going to lead to the loss of liberties and freedom of choice for everyone.
Judges and law makers will look at cases like this and see cyclists CHOOSING to not wear helmets and claiming huge compensation for injuries they then receive and they will have no sensible alternative but to make it law to wear a helmet.
If they were able to see cyclists CHOOSING to not wear helemts and then ACCEPTING RESPONSIBILTY FOR INJURIES THEY RECEIVE DUE TO INADEQUATE PROTECTIVE WEAR there would be no need for further legislation or change to current legislation on this subject and we would be free to make our own choices regarding helmet wearing.
You can't have your cake and eat it

I agree with this.

Imagine being called Bryan Chinn!

Helmet expert Dr Bryan Chinn examined Mr Smith's helmet, which was about 20 years old,

Is it just me that finds this sentence hilarious?
