  • Congratulations to the Ig Nobel Prize!

  • Driving with the helmet, and looking when you hafd to, was not significantly different from ordinary driving: I always look at the road when I must; don't you? We also ran experimental trials on a race track to get some feeling for the demand placed on the driver by tight curves at speed. It was truly an exciting and unforgettable experience.

  • John is one of my oldest friends in every sense of the word. His work on this was awesome in the 60's and he's only gotten better. I drive in Cairo, Egypt and honestly think that insane driving is one of life's underrated skills.
