Most people assume everyone is a stoned-out weirdo (which is true for some of the population), but it's a college town so there are tons of smart "normal" people from all walks of life.
The city does have some peculairities, though. Like the consensical ramblings of many homeless people, and the fact that you can sometimes smell marijuana smoke downtown (not all of downtown, maybe just half a block).
See, even I have stereotypical misconceptions against Berkeley.
But yes, you're right, we do have plenty of 'normal' people, professors, scientists, etc. And then we have the strange ones-- but that's not a bad thing, that's what makes Berkeley... Berkeley.
Hahah, that reminds me of when we first moved up here, and my aunt came to visit. She was walking along Telegraph, and started freaking out.
