Yes, there've been such allegations before. I have an impulse to go
over to Johnson Street and get a long wig to fasten to my helmet.
However, the last line should be the lead sentence in every Bikers'
Bible: "When you do have that crash, you better have it on" or your
chances of either eternally melding with the Unseen in Creation, or
being rendered incapable of ever again understanding the seeable, will
be greatly enhanced!
