at first i thought this guy was a little moody. shooting people down in
response to less than well thought out responses, going off on people,
etc. But i think these sharp tongued lashings are all he's capable of.
Give us all a break dan. if you want to be a complete asshole and act
like a school yard bully, email the person offlist. I, for one, don't
need to read this shit. get a life and stop being so damn defensive
about san fran's alleged scene. you live there so it's obviously
adequate enough for you. good for you. move on...
