• 16:19:13: @jonk You can always tell a newcomer/tourist in SF when they refer to it as "Frisco". "The City" was the way Herb Caen referred to SF.

Today's Zombie Post…

I happened to tweet to someone (hi, @jonk!) that Herb Caen always used to refer to San Francisco as "The City", and people who call it "Frisco" are probably from Los Angeles.

…Well, today I got the following message from Twitter:

Herb Caen (HerbCaen) is now following your tweets on Twitter.

…Herb Caen died in 1997, aged 80.

…I hate bots.

…but I followed "him" anyway.
