OK, thx a lot for this discussion. Reading this post (and the link to newwoodworker by Tom Hintz) has just convinced me that I need all the help I can get to prevent kickback on my bt3100. I have read these kickback articles/discussions before, but for some reason, this one piqued (scared?) me the most of any I have read. Maybe it is because I had a kickback last week using my brand new miter saw (I was very lucky on that one, as the wood went behind the saw, diagonally away from me and not towards me). Don't ask.
Anyway, even though I use the stock guard and riving knife that comes with the saw, I plan on buying the shark guard as everyone on here has said how well it works. Even though I am a "cheap you know what", I think I can convince my better half to let me get this without too much fuss.
