Buggered if I'd be able to find a suitable blue cloak, but more power if you can. And people know who you are.
Thought of black face paint too?

Fortunatly, don't have to worry about them yet, though I can see how they're useful. I've tried to organise a large group of ppl over the phone before, and I always that if I could just get everyone in the same room then it would be so much easier.

New thought -
Why the hell do we have swinging hand-holds in our buses? And by in our buses, I mean that we have them everywhere - in Australia, Japan and Korea and possibly countless more places around the world.
When I'm in a vehicle that constantly stops and starts and often swings around corners, I'd like to hold onto something stable. And a ring swinging wildly around on a plastic strap secured to a thin bar does not cut it.
Fortunately, I can reach that thin bar myself but there's a lot of people who couldn't.
It just defies understanding.

I think if it was solid it would be more likely to cause an accident if you hit your head against it. Sure, it may swing into your head, but thats not likely.
Also, it strikes me as more structually secure to have it loose then solid, but I have nothing to back that up, just how I would picture it.
