Excellent example. And, yes, totally concur. It's turning into a very sterile environment, and, yes, people raised by the TV just haven't a clue. But, plastic fantastic is where it's going...until it, the ecosystem, utterly fails. Then what are they gonna do? I cannot even fathom people who can't figure out what to do when the electricity fails. Or who think their entire fake existence is real. Anyway...today is not a good day for me to be typing, simply because my brain is goo from this ugly cold/flu microphage attack my body is undergoing the last couple of days thanks to KIDS in schools whose floors are carpet and walls are cardboard so that there is no way to disinfect and clean them, and therefore the diseases just keep mutating and circulating, infecting us all.

They are designed to be virtually zero maintenance...perfect for people raised by TV sets, who dont like getting their hands dirty. These structures have no exterior paint, no grass and no dirt...at least not that you can see. This follows some of the Japanese plans where ground cover is all moss, pebbles and pine needles.
