Funny line (not mine).
What fear do I have about death? That my wife will sell my bicycles for what I told her they cost.
You know this isn't my line: I'm not married.

How do I return a driver's license that was dropped in front of my building?
Perhaps a casulty of Santacon. My doorman found it on the sidewalk.
It is a CT license. Nothing comes up on a Google search that leads to the name.
If I cannot notify her I suppose the only thing to do is to mail it to her at her home address on the license. But I'm sure she is concerned and probably would want it back.
Green Pass - 12/10/15 remarks before the Port Authority on GWB
Currently a half-a-million bicycle trips are made across the GWB each year. If the Port Authority accorded those trips the same subsidies as Green Pass vehicles, it would total $2.9 million. Actually, two Green Pass trips are needed offset a regular car’s emissions, whereas one bike trip directly offsets one car. So we could say that current bicycle travel on the GWB annually offsets $5.8 million worth of CO2 emissions."

Techies: Backwards Compatibility Q?
I'm lowering the gearing on my 7-Speed beater bike (Shimano). I need a longer arm derailleur. Ebay is chock-full of 9-speed derailleurs (specifically XT RD-M750). Would one of those be backwards-compatible with my 7-Spd shifters and Freewheel?
Full particulars: 52/42 Front. 14-34 "Mega-Range" 7 spd Freewheel. Shimano 7-Spd DT shifters (rear is indexed, front not).
Any help gratefully appreciated,
Peter
