But one interesting adjustment from human perspective bias I have gained in my view of the earth from the tree tops; Nothing is standing "straight up", everything is sticking out sideways. There is no "up" on a sphere unless you include spin but even then the experience of "standing up" at the pole is little different than on the equator....more spin would change that.
The perspective change is from being a vertical person on a planar planet to being a spherical planet under one of billions of persons that stick radially outward in all directions. I try to think global and act local.
