I've been there and I know the feelings of powerlessness, frustration and rage that wash over you when you realize it's gone. I'll never forget the day in 1973 when my wife's and my beautiful matched white Gitanes were stolen from outside the grocery store, leaving the chains and cables in a chopped up mess on the sidewalk.
I *still* want to find the thieves and string them up by their thumbs.
