Misquote. The actual quote is There are two major products to come out of Berkeley: LSD and BSD. We don't believe this to be a coincidence. :) Jared Parsons jaredp@beanseed.org http://spaces.msn.com/members/jaredp/

Actually not. The neighborhood is a set of three one-way streets, in alternating directions. The streets are long; close to a mile. People get lazy and won't drive 1/4 mile to one of the cross streets to work their way back out. I yelled at a guy one time who was driving the wrong way at high speed (he was probably doing 45-50 mph; it's a residential neighborhood, where the limit's 25 mph). He stopped and I told him he was going the wrong way and way too fast; there are kids playing. He told me, "I don't give a f*ck about your f*cking kids. If they get in my way, I'll run'em down." He pulled out and went down the next cross street. I called the cops; it turns out he was driving under a suspended license.
