The satellite units will have a centrally located core containing health services, a common dining room, and recreational center.

Eager as rats they scatter through the house, squeaking and plundering, happy as fiends with a rich man's soul. Out come the linens and the candelabra, the rare wines, the cates and dainties, a whole lamb. Like dukes the poor pilgarlics sit them down to a palatial feast that rapidly degenerates into a gutter brawl.
