I was on TYPO-L a discussion of typography. About half of it had no relation
to digital typography so I guess that counts. I had to get off of it for too
much combined mail list traffic (thanks  a lot [geeks] (-: )

I'm interested in the fixed gear list. Which one is that? I have an old
track bike I restored. Based on the geometry and components, I'm guessing it
is around 1940's era maybe earlier.
