The Taste Land has an appreciation of B&T that starts with:

Reading Heidegger is like trying to learn to ride a bike in the thickest of San Francisco fogs during an earthquake measuring 8.2 on the Richter scale.

SF fog's not that bad, nothing like driving through pea-soup on Piedmont's winding mountain roads, barely able to see the tail light of the truck a meter ahead of you. SF fog's annoying though. I got sick of coming home, drawing the curtains and seeing naught but fog, so I moved to the Mission district. 8.2? Bah! Easy if your county enforces its building codes and you're quick enough to sip enough of your martini so it won't slosh over the edge. Sipping is the trick with Martin too.  ¶ 8:20 PM
