I certainly wouldn't call someone's misfortune "crap". When I read the OP, my first reaction was how sad that someone was badly injured. The issue of wearing/not wearing a helmet never entered my mind until I read further posts. Maybe too much time discussing/reading about helmets elsewhere caused disgruntled requests to move this thread.
Frankly, wearing a helmet or not wearing a helmet is a personal choice, and the OP wasn't preaching wearing or not wearing one. I'm glad it was posted here. I don't have the time to read everything that gets posted on this website.
