The most important fact about San Francisco is that it's a lot sunnier than I expected. I have possibly the worst sunburn of my life. Really should've taken my Jays hat to wear to the Giants game on Sunday.
The second-most important fact about San Francisco is that it's joining Memphis on my list of Cities Full of Crazy People. (I might suppose that the US generally is full of crazy people, but Salt Lake City didn't seem to be full of crazy people. (...))
The most important thing that happened in San Francisco is that I realized that once the philosopher has come out of the cave and seen the form of the good, on the assumption that the philosopher is ideally rational, if the philosopher doesn't want to rule the polis, then it is not good for the philosopher to rule the polis. And Socrates says that the philosopher will not want to rule.
