Dowsing this way has always been an amusing party trick, like a Ouija board.
It takes an imperceptible shift in position to make the rods move, so all
sorts of unconscious cues can make it happen. As a result, the rods seem to
have a mind of their own. But the important thing to realize is that they
only "work" in a situation when the operator has enough information to
control them- even if that control is unconscious.

Subject: [meteorite-list] dowsing for meteorites--had to try it
I've watched this thread with some bemusement I must admit.Having never
tried this dowsing lark I automatically dismissed it as bunkum.But I
have just conducted an admittedly short and not very scientifically
sound experiment also with large meteorites.Amazingly the rods do cross
over my 6 kilo Gibeon and even my little 630gram Canyon Diablo.However
they also crossed over 2 large stone meteorites that I tested both in
the 3700 gram range.Weird
