            What of the long term?  Details are difficult to discern.  Certainly if there is to be any hope for Mankind the present situation must be regarded as strictly transitional.  I hope for a society based on the centuries-old concept of the village community, possibly including aspects of the commune, supported and made possible by the weight of Man’s technology, preferably under conditions which make it economically viable without artificial interference (such as Government subsidy), and basically (in the ultimate) self-supporting.  Towns would exist, limited in numbers, to perform various un-devolvable (?!) functions.  Cities would be rare, and small.
