LA thoughts, Day 5. Damn it’s been 5 days already? So the idea I’ve heard from multiple people is that LA is not a single city or mega city but a collection of small cities connected by highways/transit. I don’t think this is quite right. It’s like a dozen partial cities.

Meta-Point: few other cities *invite* so much theorizing attention. I figured out Seattle to my satisfaction within like 2 days, but LA I suspect could suck up a lifetime of my attention if I let it. Closest was Bombay, where I lived (in a protected campus enclave)for 4 years

If you could construct affinity maps, I suspect you’d get a high score for Bombay-LA, in “if you like X you’ll like Y” sense. Similarities go well beyond both being balmy western-coast film industry cities. Bombay was literally a bunch of islands that were linked up.
