The only reason people like Farolito is because it's near the bart and they are drunk. By sober standards it's horrible.

Going back this week.
Grant's Tobacconist on Market near 2nd – good place to get some cigars? Yelp puts the highest rated shop out in Sunset, but I'm not going out that way.

Q:Are there more or fewer crazy people walking around the streets than there were about 8 years ago when I was last in San Francisco?
I took 5 bus rides in SF and there was an entertainly funny crazy person on 2 of them, and a psycho on 2 of them.... only 1 "sane" bus ride out of 5
- nope, most have died or moved to LA. seriously.robotron3k

^ Avoid Market street if crazy street people scare you.
- refunktion0
still plenty of crazy people to go around.

The crazy people in SF I interacted with were different than those in Chicago, New York or even some college towns, where crazy people are often very interesting to interact with...
SF...not sure if it was the drugs or the therapists.... yes, I've spent time on Market street, tenderloin, etc...

A friend who is now at Obscura digital has a huge show at Pier 15 for the Exploratorium tonight. It should be pretty awesome. Check it out San Franciscans!
Behind the Scenes: Emergence (2013) Obscura and Exploratorium
Art, Design, Nature and Technology at Scale
Exploratorium, Pier 15, San Francisco
At nightfall on April 17th and 18th, Obscura Digital transforms the historic Pier 15 into a luminous portal revealing unseen dimensions of complex micro and macro phenomena. ‘Emergence’ takes visitors on a dynamic journey through a vivid array of non-computer generated, real-life visualizations that evoke a sense wonder and awe about the nature of order in our universe.
To capture these marvels of nature, Obscura designed and fabricated ten miniature replicas of the Exploratorium’s façade, some microscopic, to contain unique experiments involving fluid dynamics, microorganisms, particle interactions, living systems, crystallization, and growth in time lapse. Documented in ultra high definition video, these compelling natural subjects are projection mapped back on the surface of the building, creating the illusion of being contained within its structure.
In addition to the ‘Emergence’ exhibit, Obscura presents an interactive thermal imaging wall (in cooperation with Flir), located on the side of the Exploratorium building, where visitors can see their heat signature projected in real-time, at large-scale, with brilliant color.
