Matthews a bit of a serial provoker
He's been "advised" previously

Red Light - Do you have some kind of email alert for the word helmet?
No. How do you set one up?

I find wearing a helmet (or cap) gives the impression that I may have a full head of hair.

[QUOTE 1740156, member: 45"]Come on chaps. This forum is made up of all sorts, from wrinklies like Noodley right down to school children. Matthew is one of our younger members and he's as welcome as anyone.
With the greatest of respect to the young man, he's just that. Can we not cut him a bit of slack and appreciate that he's still in the great position of youth, exuberance and innocence, rather than treating him like a troll or as one of the more established debaters? We've all got a lot to learn. The arguments on this forum shouldn't be with those who have potential (as Matthew does), but with the concreted-in opinionaters.[/quote]
I kind of agree with you there - I think he is a little immature, and that's not meant to be derogatory. How old is he? 17?

No idea - you would LOVE that wouldn't you.
Not really. I would much rather that people didn't take it upon themselves to lecture others about the need to wear a helmet than have to pull them up when they do.
You don't have to though - any more than Matthew has to get annoyed with everyone he sees. At least he has the excuse of youth
Ah but I have the excuse of Grumpy Old Man

Having read a number of his threads, i find it difficult to believe he is the naiive and callow youth he purports to be.
His syntax is not common among late-teens and the relentless "button-pushing" suggests an agenda.
I could be wrong...
