Feng shui and urban planning

New Age (Old Silliness)

State Assemblyman Leland Yee, D-San Francisco, has introduced a resolution that urges public building officials to accommodate feng shui - the ancient Chinese art of designing structures and arranging objects to create harmonious energy flow. ...

"We're so strapped with resources right now," said Stan Nishimura, executive director of the state's Building Standards Commission. And "we know nothing about feng shui."

I guess that Mr. Nishimura should get a seminar or two about Feng Shui underneath his belt. What can I say? It probably wouldn't hurt to have a more uniform approach toward setting up public buildings to fit to form. I believe that the Europeans referred to it as architecture! Buildings set up with feng shui in mind are actually easier to 1. get around inside of. 2. to patrol for security reaons. I vote: Go for it...It's only taxpayer's money right?
I find it embarrassing that Mr. Nishimura would comment about implementing something he knew "nothing about". His ignorance and ill-tact is probably why they're so "strapped" for cash. Idiot...

How do you feel?

Feel free to share your feelings about Feng shui and urban planning. Please stick to the theme of the entry. Disagreement is fine. Homophobia, racism, and kindred expressions of hatred will be deleted. This site is one of my hobbies. I genuinely enjoy hearing from people and hate moderating or killing comments. Forthright disagreement is fine as long as it is civil.
My thanks,
Richard
