I like

But that is the point. If helmets did their job, the riders never went to an emergency room and their accident never showed up in the "studies".

In a true life adventure when I was knock down by a pick up and hit my head, since no injury occured, it was not reported to the police. I didnt go to the emergency ward, and of course I was never included in studies.

The bottom line here is the fact the anti helmet crowd can quote "studies" and "research papers" till they are blue in the face. But the fact is they are totally flawed since they dont include unreported accidents like mine where a helmet prevented injury.
