Hi,
cause I'm not in Florida or USA... I'm in the EU.
Here (but same apply to USA) serious people belive that good MDs beat hands down any fairy-tale device... expecially the kind Dell say...
Just a matter of time, sweeps and care in the search.
The nonsense gadgets are good for belivers... they love them... and have no need of proofs. When, after a thousand of empty holes, they endly dug something valuable like some old gold ring or a rusty coin... the selective memory take place... they instantly forget about all the empty holes and pain in the *** digging them and will remember forever the valuable item found... as an example of how special and productive LRLs are.
It's a trick of the mind... often people play with these gizmoes in e.g. old battlefields... proven rich of old relics... they will endly find something... cause the big numbers of attempts play for that... but then the trick of the mind and selective memory plays major role in all that stuff.
The Dell's "challenge" is also really tricky for the stuff I wrote before... it's easy find a way to trick people in a particular scenario (e.g. a known football field)... the things are worse instead in open field... in the middle of nothing... like a desert place... where you have no reference points... when you can hide something under the sand at 1'' and people cannot see anything to spot that underground... unless they have a sensitive MD!
If you have to place in a football field don't you think you must disturb the grass there ? And that people can see you when you place stuff ? That can be an hidden camera recording all your movements ???
The serious challenges to pass must be HARD.
Kind regards,
Max
