@korver, @mitsos, @rivit, @Kloudkicker, @Nero55, @TogaMasterJohn, @ByeByeBayou, @mrsmartman, @Schulmanator, @ulisse and @mattb325, thank you very much for your likes, comments and follows, as well as your wishes for my birthday. If you have found any idea, discovery, technology, invention and solution, please let me know and I'll include it to Fairview

A new town is under development, but for now let's have a last look at Everret Green, this time at night.

I remember myself as a student of Technological Educational Institute of Ionian Islands in Zakynthos. One night I waked up in the midnight for some reason and I decided to just hit the road and start walking in the streets of Zakynthos City. It was so quiet, so peaceful, so beautiful. I had a feeling so unique that I always try to capture it in my night pictures. I hope you share the same feeling with me right now. And speaking about feelings and decisions...

Today, more and more people agree that the modern inhuman way of living, being always on-foot to work for the rest of your life in an endless sleep-work-repeat circle, it's detrimental for our physical and spiritual health. But by having a different way of thinking and acting, we could be the masters of our life and live however we wish. In a society where money -or any kind of trade- doesn't govern us anymore, where there would be no trace of modern society's narrow-minded rules and perceptions, people will not feel the need to be so obsessed with tracking the time and chasing the clock, and they'll just live, discover, enjoy, relax, think, create, explore and communicate. The entire day and the entire night will be theirs to live. This is why Everret Green and the rest of Fairview is so quiet and so busy at the same time, having its own lifestyle. While some of the machines and robots are still working, many people prefer stargazing, having some peaceful walks in the streets of the town, playing games with their friends, or just sleeping.

Here are some examples of night freedom. A basketball match at 1:00 am. With no criminals here and without any reason to wake up early, you can spend your entire nights outdoor. Heck, you can even sleep on one of the benches and nobody will disturb you.

A tennis match at 2:00 am. Don't worry, all buildings are sound insulated, so nobody's sleep is going to be disrupted.

Look at the cultural museum of the town (the domed buildings next to the police station) and you'll see some kids playing with the fire hydrant at 3:00 am. All cars here are equipped with computers and sensors, so if they see a kid they'll immediately stop.

You don't need to wait for the daylight to go wherever you want. Just pick the magnetic train or the underground pods anytime you want to.

Or, go out and explore the forest of Everret Green, admire the beautiful owls, watch from safe distant animals like bears and deer, let the moonlight illuminate your way, feel one with the nature. Always with caution.

Oh, by the way, Everret Green and the rest of Fairview region celebrated the New Year's Eve last week. Not with firework displays, though. While they're spectacular, fireworks have a tremendous impact to the environment. They pollute the atmosphere, they produce a lot of noise, and they can even kill dozens of birds and other animals. And of course since they are for just a single use, we don't need to mention how wasteful they are. This is why Fairview celebrated New Year's Eve with drone displays, like this one happened in Solvag in 2019. Everret Green deployed hundreds of drones up the sky, all controlled by the central Artificial Intelligence of the town, providing a beautiful display of different colors and shapes. Those drones are propelled by ion engines to minimize noise pollution, are equipped with sensors to detect and avoid any flying animal like bats and owls, and their lights are bright enough to perform a spectacular show without contributing to light pollution. And unlike fireworks, drones can be used again and again. Why noise and violent explosions, when you can have futuristic and humble dancing lights?

Some of you might ask if this entry is supposed to be a festive one. Well, yes, but in my way. Today is Theophany in Greece, a Christian feast day that celebrates the revelation of God incarnate as Jesus Christ, and thus the final day of our festive period. So party time is over, but not without a final wish to all of you. I'm not here to wish you have a happy new year. I'm here to encourage you to build the happy year you all deserve to have. 2020 sucked, so let's give our best selves to make 2021 suck less. There's still a pandemic out there, so stay safe, trust science, put a mask, wash your hands, do the vaccine (don't worry, it will not turn you into zombies), and protect your family and friends.
Be the hero you always needed
