Velique, Dennis, Thanks for the responses.
Dennis, I like your use of the term "medical dowsing". At least that puts us in a familiar framework. There's anecdotal evidence of dowsing (for ground water) actually working for some individuals. And *you* put it clearly in the realm of the subconscious with an admitted assumption of possible telepathy. At least it's clear where you are standing, and if I'm still skeptical, I cannot accuse you of confusing things with flowery language or trying to elevate your words to the level of pseudo-scientific jargon. And your example of sexing chicks, Velique, eloquently explains our dilemma. Thank you both. Be well, Mike D. > I used to be a student of Dr Parcells work. Yes it does work > when in the right hands.
