Each feature was charted in color on a separate transparent map. When McHarg superimposed all the maps atop each other, he saw, shining through the colors, a thin line of white that marked the highway's optimum route. Later he used the same method to pinpoint exactly where different land uses should occur with "the least costs and greatest savings and benefits on all of Staten Island...

Indians, Deloria says, have always objected. For more than 100 years they have been desperately trying to practice red nationalism in a white land. In Deloria's opinion, the termination...
