  23. Ah, rethink the wind-noise issue.  It's likely that most helmets
  24. still admit enough noise to cause permanent hearing loss if you
  25. ride over 30mph.  Excellent article concerning this available.
  26. (Thanks to a MN DoDer who sent it to me.  I would be happy to
  27. copy and forward it.)
