I'm all for the poetic outlook. I was just on a long vacation to the midwest of the United States (South Dakota, mostly), and by far my favorite feature of the midwest (of the US) is the sky, and its size, and its beauty, and its very powerful way of relegating a human to a small perspective in the big, big world. I can relate to daknjak easily. I live most of the time in urban Connecticut, where stars are hard to see because of air pollution and light pollution. I very much enjoyed seeing the Milky Way every evening while on vacation, and I have held on tightly to the perspective it gave to me.
