in thread OT: How to Spoil a nice place to live

Interesting point of view.

I would have thought the condo could be considered a "tribe" but it seems that not all living there share the same thought.

May be it could change if all living in the same condo start wearing the same tattoo? That would really bring the tribe together (imagine all people living in the condo joining together to put a tattoo on Nanette)!

    It would probably be one, if everyone was employed by the same company, all their kids went to the same school, and they never wandered farther than they could walk. Then they would band together. See and talk to one another on the walking paths.

    But probably they don't even know each other's name's (except for Nanettes :-) ) And they all head off in different directions every morning in the cars. Not much of a community.

    Some Real Estate developers are setting up nice communities here and there. Most of them are built in a big circle, where you park your cars outside, and walk in. The schools,shopping and work are located in the center. That creates a "bonding effect" and a "sense of common purpose".
