I didn't see anything abut heat in there- I have had a fair bit of success heatng stuck joints, and pulling stuck aluminum stems and seat posts.

just don't overheat (or use the auluminum parts again).

  Kyle McKinley, I love that I can open an e-mail and read that
anyone is someone's "favorite living bicycle thinker".

  Thank you for having a catagory of "bicycle thinkers" in your
head, for having favorites, and for having so many favorites that
they must be subcatagorized into "living" and, presumably, "dead"
'bicycle thinkers'.

  Reading your post cheered me up and made me feel that the world
is a good place.

  I think I'll go read Mr. Brandt on wheels right now. It just
became the most important thing on my to-do list.

  Kudos to all Americans for your historic Presidential slate--
Obama-Biden, McKinney-Clemente, Nader-Gonzalez, even McCain-Palin,
despite the shudder that one gives me--has everyone seen the photos
of Barak Obama riding his bike around Chicago like a regular
commuter cyclist?

                                  Sasha
