I hope you did not pay for the witchcraft of dowsing.
As an intelligent person, if you paid you got ripped off. Wells are drilled into a water table. Where you place your well is of little concern because the water in the water table will be within a foot or two of being lever. CN "katysails" wrote in message ... Oue well was dowsed... "Capt. Neal®" wrote in message ... Oh Jeez, What's next? A discussion of dowsing? CN "Thom Stewart" wrote in message ... John, It is rather simple, stick the thumb into the folded fingers to the first knuckle and hold it at arms length. That will give you a 10 degree spread. Each knuckle is two degrees. Top of the knuckle to the hollow between 1 degree, half way up or down is a 1/2 degree. If your sighting is between I say plus or minus. ( When voyaging, a 1/2 degree will get you to 30 miles. A minus gets you inside 30, a plus over 30. To Calib. your fist and arm, stand in the corner of a room and count how many fist it takes to get 90 degrees. Ten should do it for most people but it will let you know what your fist represents Kind of a fun and easy way to check out things that are happening around you. So as of tomorrow the Sun will be 23 1/2 degrees below the Equator. Subtract that from your local GMT Noon reading and you should have your local Latitude. Not sure where your located but St John is about 45 degrees (4&1/2 fists) minus 2 fists and 1 & 1/2 knuckles should be the local sighting (2 Fists and 1 knckle) Give it a try and a laugh at Ole Thom |

However, we'll be up in Boca Raton - a side trip down to Key West would be about 200 miles, with CN about half way. I'm not sure we'll make it, but if Neal would like to put us up for a few days, we could be tempted! My daughter would love to go swimming off a boat again! She'd be delighted by the wildlife around Neal's boat .... especially all those catfish!!! Regards Donal -- |

The last time we were in those parts we were anchored about 10 miles away, at Lignumvitae Key, and were entertained for several hours by a mother and child dolphin. |

There is no 'global warming". What they are calling global
warming and trying to blame on human activity is but one of millions of normal climate cycles that have occurred over the millennia. CN "Thom Stewart" wrote in message ... Hey all you people on the Atlantic Coast; Ain't this gobal warming really for the Birds? OT |
