Robinson Jeffers built himself a stone tower to live in, stone by stone. Tor House, as he named it, is high on a cliff overlooking Big Sur. He does not seem like the kind of person to live in a city.

Some people prefer cities, and would be miserable living isolated in a cold stone tower by the ocean.

In the middle ages, if a runaway serf could live in a German city for a year and a day, he became a free man. The saying was, "Stadtluft macht frei" - "city air makes you free."

BTW, just ran across this - from 1000 to 1300 Europe experienced the mildest weather in recorded history. Maybe something of interest for the global warming debate.
