Let me ask this. We get hit in the forearms on occasion. Should we all wear arm guards too?

Arm guards look funny. Caveats: It is pefectly okay to wear an arm guard after being hit in the forearm while the injury is healing. If you're psychic and know you're going to get hit on the arm, then wear an arm guard too.
One of the reasons I can't wear a HSM over my BIG head is the amount of HEAT generated. I guess I fear heat exhaustion more than being struck on the side or back of the head. Not everyone is as concerned about this as I am because some continue to wear the HSM. I would guess that they are more concerned about being struck on the sides and back of their head. HSM look funny too. Can't we get rid of them?
