Water Divining

Proven many many times under test conditions not to work

However it doesn't change the apparent fact that an old bricky that works for my father can turn up at a site wander around with a stick and find where the drains run.


So what is going on with the old bricky and his stick

So if water diving doesn't work then why

1 Could the old bricky use it to find drains

2 Is it widely belived to work

It has never been scientifically described, there are no equations that explain it, you can't buy a physics textbook about it, you can't go to Oxford or Cambridge and do a PhD in Dowsing, there are no examples of it being used commercially by any corporation. Yet to say it doesn't work is "plainly wrong" because you and a mate who know all about rigorous scientific experimentation, being in the middle of your A levels and all, tried it 10 times.

I don't want to live on this planet anymore.

Actually it is used by some companies to find water when sinking boreholes
