Thank you. I think I had an earlier rant to you on positive thinking. I'm bothered by the way that belief system blames people for their own situations, and - I suppose it's not a necessary part of the philosophy but - the way success is defined as "attracting" what it takes to get you, personally, to the top, leaving "negative thinkers" behind in the misery that they're at fault for bringing on themselves. And it freaks me out to see someone who's entrenched in that belief system positioning me as one of the "successful" ones and herself as a failure, while still being absolutely certain that adhering to dogma is the way to change her life. (Plus I don't like seeing her at risk of having her phone cut off, etc.)

If I put large fractal-shaped parks and reserves inside my city, it can get even more "edge" area! Plus, natural waterways already make the right sort of shapes.
