You can report the stolen bike online, which is generally sufficient for insurance.

When they stole my bike last year, they tried once to cut the cable I had it locked with and couldn't. I was in the same place a few weeks later, and they cut the chain  I had locked my U-lock to.

Tell Gary I feel for him!

Sorry to hear this.
Our guide to recovering your stolen bike has lots of great tips. Additionally, please report it on our stolen bike reporting page (which hooks in to a national database).

No. Although the bike was parked just on the other side of the window, what with the plants on the window sill, constant traffic, both foot and vehicle, when we looked again, it was gone.

We talked to the Frontier manager, and although he said they have video, he sounded like there wasn't much hope for enough resolution to be of use.

Gary was trying to find a place to file a report, the substation on Girard is closed now and all he was able to get via phone was a recording. I'll update if I hear anything else.

FWIW, he was using a standard cable, but it was cut clean and fast. The thought was that being the bikes being right there we'd be able to see anything untoward. There were three of us together and none of us saw the thief.
 
On top of everything he was just ready to leave on a multi-day bikepacking trip.

Be vigilant.
