Lots of flower power over the next few days. Mark Twain once said, "The coldest winter I ever spent was a summer in San Francisco," so it seemed a little odd that Eric Burdon and the Animals would write a song about a warm night in the City by the Bay. It contained all the Love Generation themes, like peace, love, strobe lights, moving walls, and an anti-cop message, too. Sorta touched all the hippie bases.

I guess British weather is typically deplorable enough even the 50-degree-Fahrenheit nights of even 80-degree days in The Bay Area feels "warm" and "cozy to a British-born.
I know, when wandering around Berkeley, if I didn't have a jacket with me (because of the daytime temperature getting into the upper-70s/low-80s), I'd find myself shivering at the bus stop waiting for the AC Transit 51/58 on my return to Alemeda (where I was stationed at the Naval Air Base---on a ship, now).
