First and last draft - a photo on Flickriver

            

  Here's my plan A
Circler high rise communities. Terrace hanging gardens topped with a
sinusoidal wind generator covered in photo-cell material. The central
core would be for utilities, rain collector tanks,sewage
generators,service lifts. Any thing that comes from the top floors
generating  electricity on the wary down,even the weight of the poo
washed down with grey water. Everything would have to be smart,even
the lifts using  the weight of the lift occupants. Massive septic
tank  in the basement for methane surrounded by a reed moat. Every
unit would be push buttoned  video linked for communicating with your
neighbors or food shops on the ground floor which could deliver to
your door where the occupants fridge would have a chute connected,
and one for vegetables,eliminating the need for packaging. A spiral
slide around the outside of the building would be for emergency
exit,or just for fun.Elderly people would not be encouraged to use it
lest the coroner records 'death by slide'.Teanagers could go to gyms
where the latest games would play so long as you peddled madly.
Walled kitchen gardens, woods and farms reach out to the next
community.......Anyone with me on this or would it be a nightmare....?
