Did you notice those humongous pulley wheels on the machine room floor? Did you notice that in each case, there are two huge pulleys side-by-side that rotate in opposite directions? Some years ago, a maintenance worker was doing some work down there, while one of those sets of cables was not operating. He was positioned through the spokes of the pulley wheels. (Can you see already where this is going?) Something shifted somewhere along the cable line (maybe one of the cable cars rolled a little or something), the pulleys turned a little (the two side-by-side in opposite directions), and the guy in the spokes got cut in half. This was in the news maybe 30 years ago or so.

Just a quick post before resuming my meandering about...
Had lunch at Woodhouse Fish Company. The one at 2073 Market...AWESOME is a good place to start but it was even better than that! I had the Lobster roll. I will be back before I leave. I am staying right down the street on 14th street between Guerrero and Valencia.

Since you're staying in the Mission District, you should consider trying the wonderful Mexican food there. The area is best known for the Mission burrito, but I wouldn't limit myself to that. One highly-rated place is Poc Chuc at 2886 16th Street, only a few blocks from where you're staying. For a simple taqueria, Taqueria El Metate and Taqueria Cancun are both good.
