a few weeks ago i was show a simple science experiment -dealing with some phyisics stuff about bouancy -it was crazy
the ability for a paperclip to float -after being set in water on top of a piece of paper towel -in a still bowl-gently laid on the surface -the paper absorbed water and peeled away from the paperclip and sank but the paperclip stayed afloat as long as the water was still and undisturbed -if you tried to lay a paperclip in the water bowl along side the floating one -it promply sank as the paper did -static water presure i guess was the theme .--crazy -someone saide the same thing could be done with a nickel ?--wierd -and divining rods -metal l-shaped rods laid in hands crossing over underground water sources that move -i know its scientiffic -im just waiting for it to be explained one day -witchin sticks -divining rods are still used today to find water lines burried underground -by excavator-trencher -and back hoe operators -some water co workers just use a small single l shaped metal rod that just turns when over moving water -again crazy -anyone got any clues on scientiffic real -explainations on how water and static fields and static pressure works -please folks no wacked alien technology -or metophysical b.s. just straight facts.that are known .-not into ne-wage or power crystals and pyramids .allthough its been said pyramids have dehydrating and preservative charictaristics -could be answers lie in the clay and temperature and alkilinity -and salts .-also ive herd of crystals producing light with metal and frequency .and charge .

ive also herd static charges on objects with fields can be used as a tracktor type influence from one object to another till
objects ground -or static fields can be used to push items away before grounding .

I work for a water utility. Most of our water lines are in rural areas. And alot of our old maps have very little details as to the location of the lines. For some reason they never felt it important to take measurements or anything. So I have many times used bent wires and used them as witchin wires to try and help find the location of the water lines. Some times it works and sometimes it doesn't. The wires will cross for many other reasons besides the water lines. Drain tiles, overhead power lines, underground telephone lines, sewer lines. You never know.

I remember a teacher i had in grade 6 i think it was, he was always showing us fun experiments that wowed us! And what a great way to get kids interested in things that otherwise seemed boring! And he would always challenge us to come up with stuff ourselves, he was one great teacher! yes.gif thumbsup.gif

I'd be more impressed if a dowser could tell me where to dig and not find water. The stuff it almost everywhere underground.

A dowser has never found objects or water with better accuracy than chance would dictate in any properly conducted double blind trials. Out in the field they may have more success and I think this is down to them picking up on environmental cues rather than cues from their divining equipment. Dowsers are honest people on the whole and not your common trickster but I believe there is nothing in it and the ability does not exist.

oh but it is very real. It is more real than 1+1=2
