He's got a good point though. I was in the Netherlands a couple of
weeks ago, and helmets there are totally nonexistant. A couple of
people that I was working with, upon hearing that I was a bike nut,
asked about helmets in Aust.

It's interesting to see that there's an almost perfect inverse
relationship between the number of cyclists in a country and the rate
of helmet use.

community that wants to marginalise cyclists)

Welcome back Suzy, was Netherlands a holiday?

Anyway,
Good point or not, he had three goes at kicking off an (anti-)helmet
war and no goes at all at answering the OP's question. Perhaps I could
have put a smiley there?

I protest!
I was trying to kick off an anticompulsion war! Not an antihelmet war!
