Eli the Bearded sez, "Today's San Francisco Chronicle has a story about the entire contents of a man's SF apartment being stolen. All the furniture, photos, the food from the fridge. Everything. This was four months ago, and the police have no leads. The quirky thing about this, not mentioned in the article, is that it took place just about the same time an entire house (save the foundation) was stolen in Placerville, CA."
