253 career wins
Only 24 shy of Merckx's 277
2nd best man is Sean Kelly at 159

"For a human community to make its world shapely is one thing; to preserve the shape is quite another, especially if, as is always the case, the shape is to some degree arbitrary and if the shaping requires exclusion and the excluded are hungry.

Notion has a 'dark' class for the body tag that specifies a dark-mode background color. But then it has a full-page div with a 'notion-dark-theme' class with a different dark-mode background color. But then that same div has an inline style with background-color specified...the same as the div's class.

In other news, I'd like to invite you to my new play, "The Cascade", a play in three acts.
