Cell City Analogy In a far away city called Cellomore City, the main export and production product is the widget. Everyone in the town has something to do with widget making and the entire town is designed to build and export widgets. The town hall has the instructions for widget making. Widgets come in all shapes and sizes and any citizen of Cellomore City can get the instructions and begin making their own widgets. Widgets are generally produced in shops around the city, these shops are built by the builder's union (whose headquarters are inside town hall). After the widget is constructed, they are placed on special carts which can deliver the widget anywhere in the city. In order for a widget to be exported, the carts take the widget to the finishing factory, where the widgets are transformed and prepared for export. Sometimes widgets don't turn out right, and the "rejects" are sent to the junkyard where they are broken down for parts or destroyed altogether. The town powers the widget shops and carts from a wind farm in the city. The entire city is enclosed by a large chain-link fence, only the postal trucks (and citizens with proper passports) are allowed outside the city. |
