Speaking of Kyoto. I happen to be there right now. It`s nice to be able to catch a train a few blocks away and transfer to a Shinkansen bullet train which will take me across the country at 200mph in luxury. The supermarkets are stocked with a hundred types of seafood, all relatively inexpensive, the water is tastless, and the horizon is relatively clear despite the population density.
This is all in the realm of efficiency per capita, and falls into the vision of a technological future with a high standard of living. Who is the Luddite again?
