If you have ever wondered why the world seems to be run by complete and utter idiots consider this…..
If you had to work out where to dig so that you didn’t cut off the water supply to an entire town, would you rely on a Ouija board for your answer? Probably not, but that is in effect what at least two UK water companies (now ten out of the twelve UK companies, see update below) openly admit to doing in 2017. Except instead of asking a Ouija board, they are asking divining (or dowsing) rods.
My parents were trying to install a new water pipe from the mains, which required knowing where the existing mains water pipes were underground. After calling out a technician from Severn Trent, the water company that services the whole of the Midlands, my parents couldn’t believe their eyes when they saw the man from Severn Trent slowly walking around holding two “bent tent pegs” to locate the pipe.

Actually, it works have you ever tried it ? I didn’t believe it either so a bunch of us apprentices back in 1985 bored out of our brains one day got some bent rods and put a bucket of water on the floor and walking toward and away from it. Every one of us experienced the rods crossing as we drew near the bucket.
I don’t know why it works but it does.
You might want to give the various Sceptic societies a call – there are prizes in the millions for people who can prove that this sort of thing exists.
