On discovery of this Cliff Hypothesis (and I found it here, for which I am grateful), I've acquired it and knee deep in the first several chapters, hopefully to discover the primordial reason I'm in the highest building on Rockland, and Victoria. I don't think I can come down into the trees. I have cracked Da Valley Code.

Victoria is coined a Garden City - citta giardino - obviously because almost half the year is spring-like weather; cool and showery. Great for botany, but fatal to evening sidewalk culture. However, in many areas that were cleared at the turn of the last century, it is now returned to a Forest City, with much help from decades of environmental awareness. I look down on a Rockland submerged under 5 to 7 storey trees. I have guests thinking I live next to a park! Many homes in Uplands enjoy neither a sunrise nor set.

My last residence was clinging on the lower slopes of Gonzales Hill. But wherever I abode, I must have a view to the southwest. A view of the sky. Realtors can't fathom the request. Mountin view? Ocean view? No, a blue view. It's a grey winter here and you need to catch the few rays are thrown in the dark months during the cool monsoon.

I need to see the southwest because that's where are prevailing winds come from, that's where the weather comes from, that's where you can literally, see the future.

Skill-testing question; in which direction does the camera pan in cinema to seque to the future?
