9 days ago I paid for my replacement frame and fork. I figured I would call today since I hadn't heard anything yet. when I talked to the LBS they expected it to be another three weeks - ven though it is shipping from within the United States.
If that is true it will be a 3 month process from the beginning of this late in May.

Also, sometimes the derailleur will have "settled in" to that spot, so a shift down and back up may put the derailleur farther out. If repeated shifting won't move the derailleur farther out, you may need more cable tension.

Now that my commute is a stroll down the hallway, there's no segment I ride that frequently. I did break my olde commute into 1/2 mile segments, I suppose I could do some loops repeating one of those half miles

In the big ring the outer part of the derailleur is too close to the chain? If the cable isn't tight enough it won't matter how much you loosen the screw. The screw is to limit the movement of the derailleur, the shifter is supposed to put it in the right place. If the shifter cable is frayed the first thing you usually notice is the cable seems loose.

Holy Moley! Train caught fire on the trestle over Tempe Town Lake. Looks like they must be wooden ties on that trestle the way it's burning.
