What an excellent letter. I am glad you posted it. I take my helmet selection very serious.
Thank you very much.

Yep, it's an interesting read but apparently it's all been done
before.  Here's Snell's open letter in response to the article:

And I'd sure like to lay hands/eyes on a Scorpion to test for fit before I
plunk down for the Corsair which fits like a glove, er, helmet. I saw someone
post a mail order source either on this list or the HSTA list with some good
pricing and cust svc but can not seem to find it - anyone know where that was?
