Topic kickoffs: Our urban edifices... evidences both analytical and anecdotal show that tall buildings make us detached from both eachother and our wider perception of the environment - that is, by extension of definition, crazy.

Is experiencing peril safely an expression of feelings of ineffectuality? Does the experience reinforce or negate these feelings?
