The 20th Anniversary of the Summer of Love
I never went to any of my high school or college reunions, but I
couldn't resist attending the twentieth anniversary of the Summer of Love
in San Francisco. At noon on the summer solstice of 1987, young and
middle-aged hippies--gray hair and potbellies, but not having erased a
certain gleam in their eyes--were marching in an All Beings parade down
Haight Street. Costumes ranged from a giant snail to Zippy the Pinhead.

Tarzan, but I had to wash the dishes."
Local countercultural fixtures were all there: The Mime Troupe, Rosie

a panhandler asking, "Can you spare a hundred dollars?" The buses now
had posters that suggested Shop the Haight.

The charm of that entrepreneurial urge was not to be confused with
the mission of the Haight-Ashbury Preservation Society, whose targets
were symbolized by a walking Big Mac cheeseburger, a prisoner of
Thrifty' s in chain-store chains, mock pallbearers carrying a casket to
mourn the wished-for death of Round Table Pizza, a sign warning Don't
Mall the Haight! and somebody in a Merlin the Magician outfit with a
