that's not the point.

JDT claims he works in health care and and spends a significant portion of his time working on an inpatient rehab unit providing direct care to patients suffering from traumatic brain injuries.

What is not said is that most of these patients receive brain injuries from falls, MVA's and acquired brain injuries (which cycling prevents) that number in far greater totals than the traumatic brain injuries seen in hospitals.
