I recently read an advice column in which a mother was singing the praises of wearing helmets when bicycle riding. I smiled with her as she described how happy she was that the helmet was cracked but not her son's head. She said that he would probably be stiff the next day but was otherwise OK.

Did you read this too? And did you say to yourself "How could that child have broken a windshield with his head, however protected, and only be stiff?" I did, and the idea that this child would not even be looked at by an M.D. or Chiropractor gave me a chill. 

Are you taking Tums “as a source of extra calcium” even though you don’t need “relief of acid indigestion”? Well, stop it!
