As I said to Metacomet, yeah, that is the way it works. It is fractal and works at scale - even within the cities. Suburbs end up with gravel pits and garbage pits - dealing with waste streams that are not optimized but originating miles away. I don't always think it is acknowledged or correctly calculated in the cost / benefit ratio.
