For all the replied with me in mind....thank you....if that wasn't your intent....i don't know....but what I know is this: This game, when played, and played on one's own knowledge of planning, zoning, needs, wants, and human tendencies in general....IS HARD. Not sure why my affinity for ellipses is so great on here, but this much I will learn. How to be successful without tweaking too much with the settings of this game. If I had a computer when SC4 came out, I would have bought it, at full price. As it turns out, I bought the game for $20, and am having a ball challenging myself daily on getting this silly computer population to do well regardless of what their free thinking human planner has in mind for them. Again, thank you all for your help, and if you want to give me a dummies version of how to get started, without me having to work at finding out the answers, that's all good. And let me end on asking: What is a CJ? City Journal? not sure, but that is the level of my ignorance. Hey, I'm human, and not worried about not knowing most things.
