> americans are unable to comprehend nature. the idea of living amongst nature, where your ancestors dwelled for thousands of years, deeply confuses the american. to him everything is either 8 or 80, either pristine nature or the concrete jungle and the souless suburban sprawl. the low density european countryside, with it's smallhold farmers and villages spread amongst the trees, enrages the american, not because he hates it, but because he's unable to comprehend it. i love my land, for me it's the most beautiful place in the world, i have all the amenities of modern life a short drive away, yet if i look at the skies, i can still see the kites and hawks flying high in the clouds.
