[Baypiggies] San Francisco Bay Area

Tue Nov 24 00:19:13 CET 2009

The nine-county area (thus, excluding Santa Cruz) is officially the SF Bay 
Area because those are the counties that belong to the Association of Bay 
Area Governments (ABAG), are part of the Bay Area Air Quality Management 
District (BAAQMD), and part of the Metropolitan Transportation Commission 
(MTC). In fact these three agencies have argued for decades over the 
possibility of their merging together to form a regional government layer 
for the Bay Area. To date these efforts have failed, which is one reason why 
transportation, air quality, and governance is so fractionated and 
inefficient here. Just thought you'd like to know!

Of course, a lot of places have "bay areas"... but there is only one San 
Francisco Bay Area :) And of course, C++ != Python
