Friday Files: Counter-Mine Dowsing Rod Science

Caveat emptor. Received the email below from John, complete with

his apropos signature line (personal info redacted). His thorough

YouTube Channel is evidence of

his commitment to this "science" and features an eclectic set of clips and soundtracks

in the mix along with his rigorous explanation of the topic. I'm

shocked, shocked that DoD

and DARPA refused comment. One would think that after all the experimentation

to come up with a technological nose that can out-rover Fido, they might open their

aperture to lower tech alternatives. They may get more of these unsolicited

proposals than we do so a little slack might be due, but they are better

staffed.

Happy weekend.

Dear Small Wars Journal,

I've put out on YouTube a 12-part

series on using low-tech methods to counter the low-tech methods in the current

small wars in Afghanistan and Iraq. Of course, the Dod and DARPA have refused

to even comment on them. I believe the techniques work, and for pennies, much

like the tactics used by the guerillas.

You may or may not be interested in these YouTube offerings, but they can be

found under "iesigma" or "dowsing rod science." The technique works on coat hangers,

welding rods or other such items energized by the earth's natural electricity (known

since the 1840's). That means anyone, anywhere can use it.

At any rate, please give at least some of them a try. Like many things

in science, it does not fit the current paradigm, and is scorned by much (but not

all) of the established. At the moment, other countries are beginning to put

their fingers in it. There are no fee, charges, or commitments.

Write me if you are considering any or all of the videos! I look forward

to hearing from you. <snip>

Keep up the good work!
