Summary: 

You guys/gals worry about white helmets getting dirty!  My helmet
is an MSR yellow one (their XL one is the only thing that (just) fits my
very large head).  It makes me look like a giant bumblybee. DUMB!
(but I wear it anyway).

Did someone mention that there was a helmet testing article in one
of the early issues of Bicycle Rider magazine?  They tested them
at the ANSI drop and at a more reasonable (5 feet I think) drop distance.
