Another player with Hyperbolic Discounting went further: he treated cities, any city near him, while carrying 5 red city cards in his hand and pointing out, in response to entreaties to cure red, that red wasn't much of an issue right now.

How does this demonstrate hyperbolic discounting?

Discounting with distance, I assume. Nearby people are extremely important, while it takes 100 African cities to get his attention, etc.
