Dowsing it work for me!!

Okay, I'm new to this thread, but I gotta say, JG, that you went from "hey, I dowse" to "you guys are attacking me baselessly" pretty quick there. Nobody attacked you. They simply expressed honest doubt, and offered you a chance to prove their claim, whereupon their doubt would be cleared.
Do you intend to take them up on their offer or not?

Hi John,

I also live in MA and would be very willing to meet you at your convenience to do the most basic test of your abilities. Not for the money, I have precious little of it myself, but just for the chance to show whether or not these abilities exist.

As luck would have it I have property with buried bottles and have dug a few of them myself. Finding the spots where the bottles were discarded 100 years ago is very easy so we would not use those spots. I would dig several new holes and place either broken bottles, whole antique bottles, or no bottles and re-fill the holes with the same soil. Could you tell which were which?

I live in Vermont (right next door to MA) and will be glad to assist this dowsing test -- assuming it ever actually takes place -- in any way that I could be useful. No matter what happens, it should be a hoot.

If that proves cumbersome for any reason or if he rejects the box idea, you might join him at any grade school playground sandbox. Scrape the surface clean, bury a bottle somewhere, scrape the surface again and have him find it. Lather, rinse, repeat.
 
John G. A lot of static from the non believers but it doesn't matter. Like you I use a mental image of the target and when found then imagine depth until the rods respond. Be it a grave then ask gender and age. Have found unmarked graves of kin this way. It's the right brain that does the work, plus a whole lot more. Can you imagine the crap of going through the test, plus non believers present can subconsciously foul your thoughts. As for charity, not one helps anyone. As for the pie in the sky (the $1000000) no one believed me when I said "not interested" I have all I want. Anyone with a spirit can learn to dowse.
 
Ah, the old "skeptics' negative thoughts ruin the test" excuse. If I had a dollar for all the times I've heard this lame response, I would be closing in on the million myself.

I dowse for bottles too! Only I've gotten so good that I don't even need the rods. You won't believe how many times after a hard day of work I've come home and used my powers to find me a good bottle of beer. Sad thing is, all of my friends tell me it's not a magic power to know to find beer in the fridge. SHUN THE NON-BELIEVERS! SHUUUUUUUUUUUUUUN! :rolleyes:

Oh, they wouldn't know the dowsing is happening. I don't make a big show of it like all those dowsers that need rods and other props for their little show. :cool:

Are there other reasons that dowsing can fail? If so, how would a dowser know the difference between a non believer "fouling your thoughts" and any other reason for failure?

This is my favorite claim we hear from people. It is a wonderful catch all. You can only preform your abilities in front of witnesses who already believe you have magical powers! Brilliant!
 
I've never seen, or even heard of a genuine dowser. I know of a lot of people who claim to be able to do it, and a lot of people make excuses why it doesn't work when tested.

But never once have I seen someone demonstrate it and have an unequivocal success.

And it aint gonna happen now.
