Tim!! You beat me to the punch by mere minutes!!
While I was trying to look up that quote, I bumped into an interesting website
http://www.sparkletack.com/about/ entitled "The San Francisco History Podcast." I've given the link that takes you to information about the guy who started the site up. He seems to be very enthusiastic about The City and its history. He says that he has lived in SF for "the past 20 years." I paused to enjoy a superior little Old Fogey chuckle and a kindly murmured, "Big deal, you little whippersnapper." Regardless, he does have some fun and interesting stuff on display.
