studied the effect of underground water channels on the electronic
impulses of human muscle fibers, trying to understand how water
dowsers might sense the liquid.
As part of that study, von Tscharner tested his most reliable dowser
by placing him in a trailer and asking him if the trailer was over
top of a water channel or not. The dowser was correct 24 times out of 24.
If this is confirmed, then the effect is more astounding and far less
prosaic than I supposed. However, it is still biology!
There are countless astounding phenomena in biology. I would not rule
out this finding a priori.
