When I'm telling something to someone and they're NOT GETTING IT, I sometimes have to back off and come up with a new communications plan. Some people just don't learn by listening. So also try to SHOW them the problem (the frayed strands), then have them FEEL the problem, by disengaging the brake and having them ride it a short distance, telling them that soon that will be them. If they still don't get it, they won't be in the gene pool for long. Ugh.
