I assume if you're talking about San Francisco having better freeways, you're talking about the metro area in general than the city proper, since the city isn't well covered by freeways.

Which one do you prefer to live in? In terms of everything: quality of life, jobs, family, eating out, recreational, scenery, culture, transportation, traffic, costs, attractions, and you know the rest.
Exactly.

Popularity IS power. Songs are a reflection of that. And yes, California is the most powerful state--the number of songs reflects this. How many well known songs are there about Pierre, SD?

Montclair is insistent on "facts" and "objective data", when they favor San Francisco. When he gets trounced on raw numbers though, he's all about the "feels." As in, he "feels" like San Francisco is superior to NYC. Therefore (ipso facto)....It Is.

So let it be written. So let it be done.
