		The first construction work (on the San Francisco-Oakland Bay Bridge) was begun in May of 1933, though the formal groundbreaking by Hoover and Governor Frank Merriam had to wait till July 9.
		Governor Merriam then used a dirty acetylene torch to cut a golden link in a silver chain and Time preserved his rather banal observation: "This bridge is not the product of a day." As the chain hit the pavement at 12:27, 1,500 pigeons were released into the blue sky.
		According to poetically licensed Time, some harbor seals popped their heads above the surface of the Bay to see what was going on and then (as if on cue) added their barks to the cheers of the throng.

	Upton Sinclair's lesson for California recall politics
		After his primary victory, Sinclair looked like a shoo-in to beat the Republican incumbent, Frank Merriam, a political hack slightly to the right of Herbert Hoover.
		Despite his woefully underfinanced campaign, he drew 900,000 votes to Merriam's 1.1 million in the general election.
		Now, instead of detailed plans, and a clear vision for the state's future, we get a comic-book campaign, complete with action hero and fan base, a campaign dumbed down for an electorate already softened up by decades of simplistic, morning-in-America imagery.
