Ever hear of a dwarf named Billy Barty? He was a leading activist for little people's rights. He got dwarf-tossing outlawed in Texas( big guys throwing little guys for distance) as demeaning ti little people. He started a clothing and furniture line for little people where high heels and evening gowns really fit, and couches and chairs to fit their size. You have seen kid sized recliners? They were made for dwarfs! small toilets in schools and public buildings? Again, made for dwarfs! Billy Barty made money hand over fist, because he was the first, and at the time, the only one looking out for little people. They knew it, and he got ALL the dwarf business. He did well, and sank the proceeds of the clothing and furniture lines into a third venture. He had houses built to their stature. All the counters, the stairs, the windowsills, the light switches. All the things we take for granted, he had built to their specs. Only trouble he really had were the garages. He could not get car manufactures to build dwarf cars, so they are using golf carts( most of them can;t drive for [bleep] anyhow!) Now when you get so many small people in a small area, they are a prime target for thieves, and home invasions. So this is a walled enclave with only one entrance and a ex-military security force on site. These guys are serious and can get to any place inside within 2 minutes. Panic buttons and camera are in all homes. Now dwarfs work erratically, but get paid well when they work. (that is why Tolkin's Lord of the Rings required a new technology to make short actors appear smaller still.) So Billy Barty set up a company store in the center of his town, where any dwarf can order whatever he needs, and pay for it on credit. So far everyone has paid up, and there are no defaulters( nearly unheard of) Now the mystery question....What does Billy Barty CALL this subdivision, where any dwarf, midget, or little person, can move in for nothing?

the only real difference between a good tracker and a bad tracker, is observation. all the same data is present for both. The rest, is understanding what you're seeing.
