Sometimes it helps to be rational about these things. I know, a typical guy answer, but worth a thought. We don't usually have things near our necks (except necklaces.) Being bumped there can be extremely painful and dangerous. Yet you could go through life wearing a neck brace and it wouldn't be any more dangerous. When I have trouble with my body, and I get nervous, I close my eyes and think "my body is just a shell. It's not me, it's a vehicle that carries my brain around. The only part of me that really is me, is my brain." Skin, muscles, bones, these things won't last forever. We're mostly water to begin with, and if my arm were to be chopped off, my brain would still be in tact. Wearing a collar isn't any more dangerous than wearing a wrist watch; remember that the collar can't hurt you, by itself. Remember that the flesh is only a vehicle. The collar isn't for your flesh, it's for your owner. /end ramble Stephan
