I removed the following paragraph from the article because, while it expresses a nice sentiment, doesn't strike me as really containing much content or really saying anything that should go in an encyclopedia article. If anyone disagrees, they can put it back in.

The San Francisco Bay Area is a very special area. When locals are asked to define it they give varying answers. One common definition is "Bay Area: The one place on earth where, if you have lived there for any length of time, it is impossible to go live somewhere else. You always end up coming back. No matter how expensive, how crowded." Referring to the way it is taken as self-evident that happiness and self-realisation are things worth striving for another definition goes "The Bay Area -- where dreams are tried on for size." The same goes for "The Bay Area is the place where new ideas meet the least amount of resistance." That explains the higher than average number of inventors and kooks in the Bay Area.
