I've had a few accidents with my bike, never so much as scraped my 
head (or helmet). So my helmet hasn't done a damn thing except make my 
hair look funny when I take it off. The "if it saves one life" 
argument is a non-starter. It could be used for all sorts of things, 
like banning meat, cars, gasoline, knives, baseball bats, airplanes, 
boats, swimming, hiking, cement walks, etc. etc. etc.
