Not to be pedantic, but there is no place in Chicago called the Miracle Mile Shopping Center, nor even just referred to as the "miracle Mile." Do your research before you shit on my town, 45, and take your goons with you.

School is opened, but at least there's enough snow to play in?

Illinois office also dead-ends, and you can't leave messages on either DC or IL line. Settled for sending a message via durbin.senate.gov

This is such sad news. My takeaway from working with Alison as a public historian on staff at PU is that I wish I'd taken a class with her when I was an undergrad several years earlier. May her memory be a blessing for all who knew and loved and learned from her.

Please do! TJ's says "the property owner" (aka UChicago) won't give permit to install the racks that TJ's *has already acquired* and is storing waiting for permission!

Hyde Park TJ's needs more bike parking -- and TJ's says they have more! But landlord (UChicago) won't give permit to install. All 3 racks are often full. If full today (chilly, windy, rainy), all the more on a warm, sunny day. Squeezed 9 bikes on 3 racks: one with 4, one with 3, one with standard 2.

Wasn't thinking about that they're different, since from my perspective (millennium - Hyde Park) they operate equivalently
