Blog Post #12- "Waiting for David"

What does the following quote from the chapter tell you about the city?
"That was the one thing about bring outside the city; it made all that nature stuff they taught in school seem a lot more useful.  She remembered now how rainwater fell on the mountains and soaked into the ground..."

I think that this shows how the city controls everything the people who inhabit it see.  She only remembers rainwater falling from studying it, not experiencing it.  They are controlling everything for the uglies and the pretties, making the world only what they want them to see.
