DESCRIPTION:Come along on a walking tour celebrating San Francisco's Civic Center, 
 whose institutions represent the eternal endeavor to claw back dignity 
 after the advent of agriculture wreaked havoc with egalitarian 
 communities.\n\nOur theme, stepping out about the greater part of Civic 
 Center, is that private property in the Earth divorced humanity from 
 sublime if daunting marriage with Pachamama. Once upon a time it was tribe 
 within nature, competing oft-times with other tribes for access to 
 provisions. But once the most of humanity settled down to cultivate the 
 soil, landlordism arose and with it alienation of most people from full 
 intercourse with Gaia. Now it was the king, the court, the nobility, the 
 gentlefolk who metered out access to gaining a livelihood from field, 
 pasture, and forest. \n\nCivic Center's panoply of law, the arts, home 
 rule, and public education reflects the brighter side of civilization as it 
 claws back a bit of the blessings of community for those fundamentally 
 riven of their Earth citizenship by the custom of private ownership of 
 civilization's lands.\n\nAs John Ball put it in 1381, "When Adam delved and 
 Eve span/Who then was the gentleman?"\n\nGood narrative, provocative 
 conversation, a whole lot of civics, and a modest picnic.\n
