I need to find more history about twin peaks of San Francisco. As much detail as possible, who named it, what street is it on? etc......

Twin Peaks is actually a neighborhood, rather than a specific something founded by someone. Here’s a real estate agent’s site that can help you with the streets involved: http://www.richardruss.com/district_5.htm

Here’s an on-line panorama: http://www.inetours.com/Pages/SFNbrhds/Scenic_SF.html

Of course, if you’re looking for the Twin Peaks Tavern (don't tempt me like that), it’s at 401 Castro, at the intersection with Market Street.

Why don't you do a story on that total asshole who was up on twin peaks July 4th 2000 and probably other days threatening people if they didn't stay on the stairs when they were walking up on the peaks because he was some shit head environmentalist who was incredibly afraid that people would ERODE the peaks away. Yeah, walkers would erode the peaks away all right like in about 10 million years. I have an extremely violent streak in me and such bastards had better not mess with me like that. Things like that make me go through the roof. And if he wants a war, I'll give him one.
