I contributed, KK, because I am curious. I would like to know what makes a LRL "tick". I kept an open mind about dowsing also, till I read here on the Net that dowsing was used by the US GOVT to look for water. The USGS site clearly stated that they DO NOT use dowsing. Most on this thread would make good politicians as they "dance" around the the question and when unable to refute the questineer, resort to heated lambasting as an answer. I don't do the "my way or the highway" arguements. I'm just curious, that's all. I don't know enough about the devices to comfortably argue a point. Tnx for the reply, my friend. TTC
