I have a bike locking theory that I use with my ugly but very nice old
Ritchie converted hybrid.  I figure that true bike thieves are cruising 
around prepared to defeat state-of-the-art locking methods.  Currently,
those methods involve U-locks.  So I lock mine with a simple cable lock
and padlock.  I figure it's unlikely that a thief will be prepped to
defeat both U-locks *and* cables.  In a sense, I feel safer than if I
had locked with a U-lock.  Plus, I save alot of weight.  Anyone concur
or object to this theory?
