It May Be That We Have Become

Everybody's Got A Worldview, Whether They Know They Have It Or They Don't. They Might Even Get It When They Are Little Tiny Kids. Suppose They Get It When They Are In College, Which Is Often The Case, Or In High School, Whatever. Everything They Learn After That Or Every Thing They See After That, They Fit It Into That Worldview. And They Are Making Coherence Of What's Good, What's Bad, What Will Work, What Won't Work, What's Noble, What's Ignoble, And So On... All Through This Filter.

In Our American Cities, We Need All Kinds Of Diversity.

Streets And Their Sidewalks-the Main Public Places Of A City-are Its Most Vital Organs.

I Get Absolutely Ruthless In My Own Way About Not Doing Anything Else When I Am Trying To Concentrate On Writing A Book. I Have To Stick To It And Concentrate.

I Basically Don't Think That The Way We Do Things Is That Dependent On One Resource, Such As Oil. There Can Be Different Kinds Of Engines For Cars. I Think That Solar Heating, Wind Heating Can Substitute For A Lot Of Uses For Oil. I'd Like To See Those Things Happen Because They Are More Sustainable In Any Case. But I Do Not Think That Running Out Of Oil Is Not Going To Bother Us That Much. I Think We Have Got To Be Rescued By Something Or We Really Are Going Down A Slippery Slope.
