Egads man, my head is worth infinite dollars and pounds sterling!!!
But obviously I can't afford that.  Try instead:

	"Figure out how much you can possibly spare to
	protect your infinitely valuable head."

The point is any helmet certified by Snell or even DOT (gasp! shudder!)
will do the job.  And any helmet at all is infinitely better than none.
What makes you choose one helmet over another will be functional
differences, ie. wind noise, resistance to fogging, easy to use shield,
comfort, etc etc.

PS. The magazine mentioned is "Motorcyclist."  Try your local
library or if you're really desperate, I can USnail you a copy.

PPS. I vote for the Arai Super-Light.
