If he had been wearing them on top of his head, the result would have been the same.
For the last two seasons, we've had volunteers assigned just to watch for people without safety glasses in the pits. At the end of Thursday, the most common report I've gotten from those volunteers is, "I've told at least a hundred people to wear their safety glasses over their eyes, not on top of their heads."
Seems obvious, but we have to keep repeating the warnings. Replacement eyes are
not available at the spare parts table.

I believe in intuition and inspiration. Imagination is more important than knowledge. For knowledge is limited, whereas imagination embraces the entire world, stimulating progress, giving birth to evolution. It is, strictly speaking, a real factor in scientific research.
