My dear friend Adam Savage, starting about 3:50 in this video, gives a beautiful description of the history of the value he’s found as a creative person in being a denizen of the Bay Area, especially San Francisco, since his first experience here in the late 80s.

Really lovely and compelling:

@Drwave I related to that video because I have the exact opposite reaction to San Francisco (and all the parts of California I’ve visited). He’s right: it starts with stuff as fundamental as the light, the air, and the land! Amazing how strongly people feel that kind of connection (or non-connection, in my case).

@jsnell @siracusa @Drwave As an Iowan I’d notch that range of comfortable down a bit. I’ll take 55 over 83 any day (it’s been upper 80s into the 90s all week)

@ehler @jsnell @siracusa @Drwave As someone from the midatlantic, I gotta agree. I’d prefer 50° over 80° any day
