Remember as history shows, expansion occurs in waves. First colonies
develop all over a planet in a very sloppy manner and then the colonies
grow to fill in the empty spaces at a slower but much more efficent rate.
The same occurs in brainstorming. You get a bunch of vaguely associated
ideas and then manipulate and merge them to fill in the blanks to create a
story or thesis.
