I'm pretty new to MDing and was reading another post that mentioned Pendulum and dowsing rods. I hope this is not a stupid question, but what are they?

Just wondering if you believe in anything you can not see? Anything?Tom_in_CA said:They are hocus pocus, with their own section reserved for them, on the T'net menu.
If you really think there's some merit to them, save your money and just use a bent coat hanger. For extra power, you can always use bird seed, squint real hard, and stand on one foot If someone tells you that's not scientific, you merely tell them "it's undiscovered science"
Tom_in_CA said:Vibes and LaBeep, I'll accept your assertions that we can't discount things we can't see, and things we can't ascribe to scientific explanations. As long as you too accept this assertion that I will make: Take an old rotting pair of Nike tennis shoes, sprinkle them with birdseed, then put a magnet inside of them. You throw the old shoe up in the air, and wherever it points when it lands, is pointing to treasure (or some metal target). Keep repeating the process, progressing to wherever the shoe points. Eventually, you can take out your detector to "pinpoint", and there's bound to be something metal in the area (a nail, a penny, etc...). So presto! the tennis shoe pointed you to it!
Now you certainly can't dismiss this assertion on the basis that it could be attributed to blind chance or lack of scientific explanation. Afterall, we can't dismiss things just because they aren't backed by known science, right? Therefore you must accept that the tennis shoe treasure finder might actually work, and be proved by future science. Then too will I accept that your coat hanger or any other such dowsing devices, might also work to find treasure.
Do we have an agreement?
I drove a ball off a tee with a putter once, and I'm not even related to Tiger.Mike(Mont) said:Yes, you can draw a line on a piece of paper and use it for a wave guide...IF you can get past your ego, remove negativity, meditate, etc. to access your subconscious. You can take that line and curve it into a circle and use it like a dial on a meter. You can use a wood axle and wood wheels on your car and grease them with poop. Hey, you can use a putter to drive a golfball off the teebox...if you are Tiger Woods.

Is this another one of your assumptions, Mike, or did you get this out of your "nose" book? Either way, this is something you should look up. I think you'll find the truth differs a bit from your opinion.Mike(Mont) said:Insect antennae work like dowsing rods. One side is positive, the other negative.
