You wouldn't like to hear what he says about your conceit and phony logic. Really makes my day to read it. I don't know much about his widow, but I spoke with her a while back and she does not sell any dowsing tools, just books, tapes, and videos.

Hi Mike(Mont),
I, for one, don't have envy for Hills or other proponents of dowsing. I have read many of the theories and teachings of dowsing. I think this is great stuff for people who want to know what they teach. People are well off to pursue dowsing if it interests them. And if they find happiness from learning teachings of dowsing, then I think it is good for them to get as much of this happiness as they can find.
I suppose the reason we see so many disagreeing opinions here is because this is a technical site dominated by engineers and others who have years of training to teach them about how science works. It seems reasonable to me that you will find fewer people here who find their happiness from studying dowsing teachings. I suspect the majority of people who post at Geotech will think that dowsing is kind of a funny superstition that is only good for making jokes about.
If only I could see a few double blind tests that show dowsing actually works, maybe I would change my mind and join the people who find happiness from learning more of the teachings of dowsing . But for now, it seems like a funny superstition to me.
Best wishes,
