Default Helmets!!! Do you or don't you

I'm not one of those people who believe we should be made wear helmets, but I wear one anyway as they have already saved me from either being killed or being a vegetable on two occasions now (personal preference). I just want to know how many of you wear helmets and how many don't. If you want to give a reason feel free.

Wear mine all the time, only got one head. I think to a degree it is what you are used to. I feel naked without mine, usually the 1/2 type.

Me too, just not comfortable without it. But I am also a "to each his own kinda guy" feel the same way about the stupid seat belt thing in a cage.

Michigan just changed the law (5.13.12) and I checked with my insurance company today and to meet the new insurance requirements by law if I want the choice my rate is $88 higher per year.
So, I wear my helmet all the time but want to see what it feels like here and there.
