Sense In, Incense Out
Wall St. Journal

"President Bush's team has dumped an $860,000 federal program that taught
public-housing tenants to burn incense, carry lucky gemstones and wear
feel-good colors like apricot to reduce stress," the New York Post reports:

Launched under former Housing Secretary Andrew Cuomo, the New Age-style
"Creative Wellness" program, which was to be taught in public-housing centers
in 26 cities, including New York, identifies people as one of 14 different
"types," depending on their "corresponding glandular points."

A process of "applied kinesiology," in which the individual is poked in the
glands, would let designated "wellness trainers" identify whether a man is an
"Apollo" or a "Hermes" and whether a woman is an "Artemis" or a "Minerva."

A Cuomo spokesman tells the Post the program's approval was a "rogue action
by a lone civil servant" and the secretary never knew about it. "This grant
should be condemned and shut down immediately," says the spokesman, Peter
Ragone. Not everyone agrees:

A public-housing resident in Alabama, who'd been counseled to avoid green,
says she's been sleeping like a baby since she "cleaned out my closet and
removed the dark-green bedding."

"The upper echelon of Washington really doesn't know the needs of the
people," Lusson told The Post.

screeds are unwelcomed. Substance—not soap-boxing—please!  These are
sordid matters and 'conspiracy theory'—with its many half-truths, mis-
directions and outright frauds—is used politically by different groups with
major and minor effects spread throughout the spectrum of time and thought.
That being said, CTRLgives no endorsement to the validity of posts, and
always suggests to readers; be wary of what you read. CTRL gives no
credence to Holocaust denial and nazi's need not apply.
