Hi Riv Chicas y Chicos,  Here's one to throw in the hopper! Yesterday
on my commute home, I was stopped close to the right curb at a light
for a busy cross-street (Hiawatha Ave at 35th st in Minneapolis for
you twin cities folk).  I heard a horn behind me; not a blaring one,
just a can-I-get-your-attention one.  I turned around to look, and a
bit behind me was a man on a bike who was square in the middle of the
right lane.  Behind him was a woman in the car from whence the beep
came.  She asked in a very reasonable tone if he could move over so
she could make a right turn.  He replied no; the light was about to
change.  Then there ensued a brief but escalating argument while the
light didn't turn green with the biker vocally refusing to move over
and the frustrated woman asking why he wouldn't just move over.  I
refrained from turning around and watching the whole thing much less
getting involved.  The light finally turned green.  I, out in front,
sprinted across Hiawatha with the argument still going.  The last I
heard was the man shouting over his shoulder in a sarcastic tone: "I'm
sorry I made you wait 40 seconds."

Curious to know what y'all think...would you have moved over?  stood
your ground?  In similar instances that I've been in, I know that I've
moved over and didn't think much about it.

The trees are leafing out here a full month early.

Liesl
