Of course, really pedestrians should stick to the _left_ side of the path, because that way one's right arm is to oncomers, I seem to be missing the significance of this. That's your sword arm. Well, unless you're a pinko lefty. That's part of it. But it also means that dismounted cyclists cross paths with others with their bikes between them, which is a useful defensive measure when in a nasty bit of town. -- Robert Uhl http://public.xdi.org/=ruhl A human being should be able to change a diaper, plan an invasion, butcher a hog, conn a ship, design a building, write a sonnet, balance accounts, build a wall, set a bone, comfort the dying, take orders, give orders, cooperate, act alone, solve equations, analyse a new problem, pitch manure, program a computer, cook a tasty meal, fight efficiently, die gallantly. Specialisation is for insects. --Robert Heinlein |

The bike, however, should not be on your sword arm, but on the other. Some smudging from the chain is a small price to pay for a) not smudging other, perhaps highly strung individuals and b) having your sword/knife/gun arm free, at least iin potentia/i making assailants think twice before assaulting you (even if you carry none of those items).
