i'm a highly pro-development type, but i also live in san francisco, and i think we should pepper peskin with ideas, rather than just being fuckwits rambling on about x or y.

I'm all for having opposition to the mayor, because clearly the guy is running the city unopposed as it stands. So I don't mind having "a Peskin" on the Board. But I agree with the previous poster that this means Central Subway to North Beach and beyond is now likely dead, and that's probably the most important pending development project in San Francisco.
