OK, I admit: [ Does anyone know good thorn-resistant tubes?]

Notes on how the universe works:
I mentioned above that I get very few flat tires.
Well.
My wife and I just got back from a grocery run. I was pretty
heavily laden. It was a bit of a challenge to fit everything
in my panniers, on top of my rear rack, etc.
Halfway home I noticed my rear tire was low. I was able to
pump it up once and make it the rest of the way without
changing the tube, so that's at least some luck. And I don't
know yet if it's a bit of glass, or maybe a pinch flat due
partly to the load.
But the lesson remains: Don't taunt the puncture gods!
There's that. And goes both ways.
The Europeans were not much bothered by yaws, but the New
World variant remains troublesome to this day
Andrew, I think you attached that to the wrong thread.
Whoops, you're right. Sorry.
I also read 1491 and enjoyed it immensely.
One of these days I mean to get back to St Louis and see the remains
of Cahokia.
