    * QUIZ - SAN FRANCISCO 1 *
    BAYLIFE PAST, PRESENT AND FUTURE
    Quiz Directory San Francicso's crookedest street? It's not Lombard You don't have to be born in or live in San Francisco to call yourself San Franciscan. You do have to care which city street is the crookedest (hint: not Lombard) where the oldest building still stands, how the fortune cookie was born, who performed at Winterland's first show or where North Beach's beach is. True San Franciscans have at least 10 of these facts on hand, ready to brandish any time.
    * Glorious Past *
    QUESTION 1. Why was San Francisco originally called Yerba Buena? QUESTION 2. What's the approximate value in today's dollars of gold mined in the Mother lode 1849 - 1900? QUESTION 3. What Gold Rush entrepreneur made a pair of pants from a canvas tent? QUESTION 4. Why does San Francisco's city flag feature a phoenix? QUESTION 5. What famous cowboy helped Capt John Fremont scale Fort Point's walls to claim the Presidio for the United States July 1, 1846? QUESTION 6. What general prison policy, in effect from the time Alcatraz opened in 1934 until 1937, contributed to its reputation as one of the harshest federal penitentiaries?
