who never worked a day in his life
so to speak until the age of 35.
He is now a top landscaper in Austin, Texas
and a friend of Patricia Michael
the well known permaculture designer
who will be at our International Feng Shui Conference
in San Diego, Aug 5-6-7 with pre and post workshops
4 and 8.

Billy was one of the drummers and long hair
hippies back in our days at Healing Waters Hot Springs
when we would gather for the Solstices and Equinoxes
around 1978-79.
That is Billy on the right with Bill Fleury, his partner.
I visted Bluesky once on a trip to Oregon where in lived
in an intentional communtiy outside Cottage Grove.
The community had numbers of industries including
making tofu.
Bluesky was a great building of Tee Pees back then,
and I believe in lived in one.
Now a days he is managing a staff in Austin doing some
very special projects, and preparing to build myself
another natural home.
He would like to take about two years to build
a living house that breathes and does not create mold.
This is all very possible.
Billy tells me that the Partenon of ancient Greece
and the Great Wall of China were built with crushed rock
that gives off Magnesium Oxide as opposed to Carbon Dioxide.
Our building industry today is highly invested in making concrete
that basically is a mixture of Portland Cement, Sand, and gravel.
A By-product of Portland Cement and Concrete is CO2,
and this is a big time producer of Global Warming.
Global Warming is a Reality known by scientists
around the world, but has no reality in the places like
the White House.
The building industry in highly invested in
Concrete and it is the job of every loyal American
to of course support Concrete.
I was telling Bluesky about Gareth Cole, Australia's
leading Eco-Architect who will be here in San Diego for
our Feng Shui Event.

Billy was telling me also about a friend of his in Austin who
does what is called Bau-biologie.
Bau-biologie is the study of the impact of the "built" environment on human life. We study the building and its impact on the physical, emotional, spiritual and mental being of the people who are living or working inside.
