I find it interesting that the Chinese added the same warning 5,000 years ago when setting up their Feng Shui guidelines... There must ALWAYS be a cover over the bowl when not in use or it's baaad mojo.. We've followed basic Feng Shui rules for most of our daily life planning, and despite the first impulse knee-jerk thinking of 'why would we do this or that silly thing,' it generally turns out to have some interesting scientific foundations.

It's odd that these warnings seem to go round in circles. First XYZ is healthy for you, then a few years later it's bad for your health, and a few more years later OK again. Wooden vs Plastic chopping boards... Eating raw eggs... Butter vs Margarine... Palm oil... Refrigerating eggs... etc., etc. I haven't seen a refrigerated egg being sold in the last 25 years. It just isn't done in Asia. And oddly enough, there are no outbreaks of Salmonella poisoning!
