The California Law Revision Commission (CLRC), Numerology and the Hartford Syndrome
If this is what we can do to 17 attorneys, guess what we can do to average Joe Homeowner?
June 7, 2008
The California Law Revision Commission (CLRC) regularly
sounds like a Homeowners Association board of
directors, blaming homeowners for the Hartford
Syndrome – In a hit-and-run incident May 30,
2008, a resident is left to die, while Hartford
residents stood by -
responsible for the malaise du jour.
For example, the president of the CZ Master Association
recently blamed the lack of direct popular elections
on the legislature because of loopholes contained in
legislation mandating direct elections in common
interest developments, failing to mention that her
board had taken advantage of such loopholes to
maintain the status quo.
Other members of the board argued against
direct elections due to apathetic residents.
Likewise the CLRC has been rationalizing its
approach to AB1921, which Vanitzian calls a mistake and “..
shatters the American dream for millions of
residential deed-restricted property owners and many
believe that the California Law Revision Commission
has exceeded its jurisdiction”, in her response to Response
to Memorandum 2008-12 Opposition to Assembly
Bill 1921.” The response from the CLRC is along the lines of “the
bill has been out there for more than two years,
homeowners are simply apathetic”.
However, there is no mention of the chastising
17 attorneys have received at the hands of the CLRC
who dared to speak against AB1921.
The message sent out loud and clear by the CLRC
is: If this is what we can do to 17 attorneys, guess what we can
do to average Joe Homeowner?
Either out of desperation,
wishful thinking or boredom, the number 17- as in the
number of attorneys who dared to speak up against
AB1921- caught our attention, and we turned to
numerology: Is
there a hidden meaning in the number 17?
– It turns out that 17 is a very special
number, as it carries the same meaning as the seventh
prime number - Prime numbers carry a hidden meaning
which is the same meaning as the number of their order
in the list of primes.
And since
numbers can also declare a meaning from their
appearance or arrangement, 17 portrays the number 7
(perfection) standing before the number 1 (Creator).
As a prime number, 17 is divisible only by
itself, so it speaks of single-minded worship of
the Creator. Its
sum [8] portrays eternity - new birth and perfection
of spirit - because this figure has neither beginning
nor ending and initiates a new series (after seven).
