2. When I was in elementary school, I spent almost every single recess from third through fifth grade just walking in endless loops around our barely-there asphalt quarter-mile track on the upper playground. People thought I was nuts, but I was daydreaming.

You know, I used to do something really similar. In middle school (4-6th grade), I used to get up on top of a cylindrical climbing structure made of metal pipe and walk around in circles during recess. It helped me think.

Oddly, time also goes upward and right-to-left, with little hills and things.

Muad'dib!
