When I put my bike up for a week or so, should I release the pressure from the tires? My bike is a
Trek 1000 with 100 psi (Bontrager) tires.

No need. The air will slowly bleed out of them over time without you having to do it.
Sheldon Brown may have said:No.

Yes, I have a killfile. If I don't respond to something, it's also possible that I'm busy.

Only if you want to pump them back up when you start to ride again. 🙂

You know, that would be a much more amusing [censored] on Sheldon if it wasn't for two facts:
1) there is a widely-accepted standard for .sig delimiters and size ("-- " for a delimiter, followed
by no more than 4 lines of no more than 80 characters each).
2) your .sig doesn't conform to it.
