I'm not an urban planner, but I guess a lot of them would relate to visionaries and activists (like Jane Jacobs). Maybe it's particularly important to frame our own stories when we're telling stories to frame a world an audience can only imagine. Perhaps it's bit like Jesus's parables about the kingdom of God--fresh ways of thinking about the future. To react to naysayers' stories keeps us and our listeners in familiar worlds.
