The plates are the Pacific that's moving North relative to the North
American. San Francisco sits wholly upon the North American Plate.

The lunar year doesn't necessarily begin in February.
The "Don't-miss SIGHTS in San Francisco" page
http://geocities.com/touringsfo/Articles/Sights.html has enough to
keep you busy for nine 12.7-hour days. It includes links to your best
sources of advice on WHERE TO EAT and, according to the Department of
Health, WHERE TO NOT EAT here, the UseNet Group ba.food, and the
quite-good sfSurvey and the comprehensive Yelp. It also has a WEATHER
CHART with a link to current conditions.
The FLAG/MAPS page
http://geocities.com/touringsfo/Articles/FlagMaps.html has links to
the best on-line MAP of San Francisco, the outstanding
WALKER/BICYCLIST map that shows the steepness of our streets. The new
version of the formerly superb map created for the San Francisco
Municipal Railway has removed many streets' names making it less
useful. It's cluttered with our many bus, cable car, street car, and
bus routes. There is also a map of our CABLE CAR ROUTES, our 49-mile
SCENIC DRIVE, and a superb map of GOLDEN GATE PARK.
The frequently-updated SPECIAL EVENTS page has irregularly-scheduled
music and dances as well as links to seven calendars of
regularly-scheduled dances, a composite of five of them, and one of
dance cruises and events around the world:
http://geocities.com/dancefest/Specials.html The MUSIC section at the
bottom of the page focuses on the best of jazz.
