The great omission in American life is solitude. . . that zone of time and space, free from the outside pressures, which is the incinerator of the spirit.

Huh? Solitude incinerates (destroys) spirit?
Solitude is increaing difficult to find; cretaceous badlands work sometimes and they mostly look alike in the Big Bend, or 4-Corners or South Dakota. But with a legal population of over 300,000,000 now and likely 320,000,000 counting all those uncounted, we are looking at a doubling time of less than 45 years, possibly 30 years. That means that solitude will be an even more difficult experience with 600,000,000 people or more by 2040 or so.
