Just for fun, this map shows the general terrain
of the area that Judy sees as having "its own
straight-line grid." Zoom in, and have fun finding
(other than agricultural fields) all the "grids"
that Judy sees.

I would guess that the lesson behind this is that,
similar to the way that people wearing rose-colored
glasses tend to see things in shades of pink, people
whose minds are confined to tiny little boxes and
trying to stuff things into them tend to see tiny
little boxes everywhere.  :-)

Or could the lesson possibly be that those who are
compelled to be apologists for the things they are
fanatical about can always find a way to do so. 
Facts should never present a problem to the True
Believer.  :-)
