I agree with Dave. (I wonder if I can call him Davey? Or Davakins? Or Davipah?) I volunteer whenever I can at 826 Valencia, which was founded by Eggers - love him, and I got to meet him! Check out the rest of the New York Times article on the Mission and/or browse through their travel guide for the city of San Francisco. It's impossible to not fall in love with this city.

NYTimes describes SF's Mission District "Eclectic, Eccentric, Electric"
"I try to get anybody coming to San Francisco to come to the Mission," said Dave Eggers, the best-selling author who set up the first of his community writing schools here. "Not to misuse the word 'authentic' - I think that's such a troubling word - but the Mission really does have all the best parts of San Francisco intersecting here."

That article was a little weird:
"At the intersection below...blue-haired anarchist daddies push strollers..."
Maybe I don't get to every corner of the Mission, but do such people really exist? Anarchists get thrown in jail during protests - how do they find babysitting?
