I do not blame anyone for being skeptical when it comes to water
dowsing.  I was very skeptical.  Now, well, I lost some of it.  And
I must add to yesterday's article the fact that the old professor who
taught me how to dowse told me (with a twinkle in his eyes) that I must
verbally say, "I believe, I believe," as I dowsed.

Also, I kept the rods all these years and I demonstrate dowsing to
anyone who shows the slightest interest.  Then, to top it off, I let
the skeptic try.  Everyone I have showed how to do it was successful
in detecting water (the pipes underground).  You should be there to
seek their reaction when those foot-long pointers swing together and
stick to each other.  That even includes the world's greatest skeptic,
my wife Carol.
