San Franciscians don't care for 'San Fran' and 'Frisco'. And, following the streotype of San Francisco being full of hippies, leads to "Don't call it San Fran unless you are looking to learn about hippie rage". 
Of course that is an old stereotype. According to my friends back there, it is full of techies and yuppies now. And I'm certain they call it 'San Fran' and 'Frisco'.

HA! Okay, I see now.
BTW - I've heard the street players are no longer there. Chased off by cops because they were 'gambling'.
Sorry if I've side-tracked your thread. When I get to the 7-circles part of this book, I will return with some more relevant comments.
de la Maza's approach seems quite slow and dull to me. I'd rather follow Jeremy Silman.

They teach 2 different things. So it is not a matter of one or the other. About like choosing between cake and steak.
It is evident which method is better.

Well, again. That would be like saying if cake or steak is better.

So it was because of this? I was only aware of Karl Malden and Bullit.
What is a steak?
What is that?! Looks disgusting. I'll take cake.
It's flesh-o-cow.
Yumm Yumm!!
Lemme vomit....
Anyway....
Do you understand now?
It's all perception!

IT's not.
Silman books are more about strategy. This MDLM stuff is about tactics. 2 totall different things.
YOu are NEVER going to make GM if you can't get this straight. 
I don't want to be one.
