20. LOL, free speech zone in Muir Woods?
Why would they need one of those with Druid Heights, the hidden hearth of bohemian culture, a "beatnik" enclave years before the term was born or needed, and later a party spot for famous freaks a mere 500 yards away? Scores of sculptors, sex rebels, stars and seekers lived or visited the spot over the decades, including Gary Snyder, Dizzy Gillespie, John Handy, Alan Watts, Neil Young, Tom Robbins, Catherine McKinnon and the colorful prostitute activist Margo St. James. Cripes, even the 'Hot Tub' was invented there! Lots of good Juju still lingers in Franks Valley today to make a 'Free speech zone' in Muir Woods unnecessary.

As for Muir Woods proper, I never felt it necessary to speak in God's boudoir.
