			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><br /><p>Dan Manges has an excellent <a href="http://www.dcmanges.com/blog/37">post</a> explaining Law of Demeter and when it makes sense to use Forwardable to comply the principle, or I should say when it doesn&#8217;t make sense to use the module.</p>
<p>The point is, use it when it makes sense. Take his example, customer_name is just not a sensible method for an order. Asking an order for its customer name is a wrong question because all the order should care is who is its customer. The name is irrelevant to the order.</p>
<p>In fact, I think by putting <i>cusomer_name</i> method in an order. the encapsulation is actually broken because now an order knows the inside details of a customer, thus tightly coupled these two classes.</p>
