	The ubiquitous Herb Caen of the ''San Francisco Chronicle'' seems to have coined the term 'Beatnik' in 1957 when ''n The Road'' was on the top of the bestsellers list and the Soviet Union had just launched Sputnik into space. Caen wrote that the pseudo-Bohemian North Beach followers of the [[David Meltzer on THE BEAT GENERATION \| Beat Writers]] were as far out as the Russian rocket. Beat plus nik equals Beatnik. Get it?

	Some San Franciscans weren't so willing to accept this new phenomenon into their city. In May, 1959, ''Chronicle'' critic Donavan McClure reviewed a Monster Poetry Reading that included performances by Allen Ginsberg and James Broughton. In his article, "Beat Poets Appear En Masse--A ~~Mess~~: (''SF Chron''. 5/24/59), McClure wrote incredulously about the audience of longhairs (mostly uncombed) that had come out to Garibaldi Hall to see and cheer on their literary heroes. "The poems," he wrote, "were smartly wild and uninhibited before an audience that could be shocked only by the appearance of a hair oil bottle."
