I have been reading and trying to redo the model of Schelling based on 
the information you give me and the explanation here:

http://workspace.phazon.info/2006-m1-iad/gblondel_ldavid_rapport.pdf

when I try to do the testSatisfaction script I can go further that the 
screen shot attached. The translation of the first only line goes 
something like this:

rojo's | numberOfNeighborhoods <- |  rojo's | patchValueIn | patch

(please note that I'm not trying to translate to Smalltalk/Squeak code, 
only to put/emulate the text on the Etoy script from spanish to 
english). But in the documented article, the code goes something like this:

rojo's | numberOfNeighborhoods <- |  rojo's | patchValueIn | patchRed

I have not idea how to refer to patchRed object. This patch was already 
added and renamed, but I don't know how to "link" the red population 
turtle with a specific patch. Same for blue turtle population and patchBlue.

Another question: after writing the behavior  of the red turtle 
population, there is a way to copy the same for the blue turtle 
population or need I to rewrite it again?

I hope that any of you can give me a quick pointer to the solution.

Thanks in advance.

Cheers,

Offray
