Last night I saw a History Channel special where a guy was using "Dowsing" aka "Diving" rods to find a sunken ship off the Oregon shore. It was reported that he has found millions of dollars of gold and silver mines in this way.

I'm intrigued.http://www.questfortheegyptianadventure.com/JOHN%20DOWSING.JPG

What do recognized Science Experts/Scholars say about Dowsing/Divining?

Opinions are welcome, but I'm looking too for links/sources of recognized Scientists/Scientific Organizations.

Thanks :)

It has to do with positive/negative energy fields from what I understand.
One of the alternative drs. I listen to said you can even tell if food is good for you or not.
Junk food will spin left. Synthetic will spin left. If it is good it spins right.
I really haven't gotten into studying it much -yet anyway.

This link, links to both sides of the dowsing story.:)

Thanks for the info. I will review it closely before trading in my metal detector and ground penetrating radar for divining rods :)
