Last week's hearing at the San Francisco Board of Appeals was reminiscent of the mythical battle between David and Goliath. Residents who live at the corner of Belvedere and Grattan streets in Cole Valley presented evidence and arguments to the Board in hopes members would overturn The City's approval of a Verizon wireless antenna outside their homes.

Instead, they'll have to wait a month before knowing whether they toppled the telecom giant. The City asked for more time to review information again.
