I think the reason they used Oakland is because Oakland is now considered hipper than SF.

I could see that. Kind of like Brooklyn is now hipper than Manhattan?

You'd be proud of me, Stars - I just rode, without taking one step, the Dupont Metro escalator. It was excruciating.

As for Vegas.. Miami.. San Diego.. oh, please.

Haha - I didn't even notice Orlando on that list. No wonder Stars99 posted it. Again - Forbes lists are always a joke. Just look at their latest college rankings.
