This place has reached a new low...mods editing thread titles, inserting post content in order to ridicule certain members and participating in flame wars. Absolutely ridiculous behavior and lame beyond lame. Actually, lameness so lame that words cannot describe its indescribable lameness.

Where have you been? A&S has been pretty much at Rock bottom for awhile. Nowhere to go but up.

I personally don't find my situational awareness to be affected by listening to music, even with both earbuds.

Brian Johnson: Well, in foo we... we talk about farts, used beds.
John Bender: So it's sorta social, demented and sad, but social. Right?

Personally, I like riding on the left of the road, so I can see traffic coming, that way I don't need a helmet. And I can listen to my mp3 player, and run lights on my Walmart bike, getting me there faster. I just feel safer.
