Bawa, the Parliament and Butterflies

While waiting upon the obvious results of Judgment Day, the mind wandered to a “what-if” moment.

What if Geoffrey Bawa made the Parliament 'seating arrangement' a little differently? Perhaps a round table? Perhaps something like the big octagon? Anything to break the group mentality of the MPs.

Of course this wouldn’t have any effect on crucial decisions like today’s budget vote. But it would certainly reduce the probability of raping each other in public.

We all know the Robber’s cave experiment and the Stanford Prison experiment, and the utter madness that lies when humans divide into groups. So anything at all to disturb the gangbang mentality of Party Politics would be nice. You never know...Butterfly Effects do happen.

Ahh…. A little wishful thinking a day, keeps the frustration away.
