    Default UK water firms admit.....

    Wonder if Meat-Head water bills can cover the costs of the cutting edge technology used....


    Ten of the 12 water companies in the UK have admitted they are still using the practice of water dowsing despite the lack of scientific evidence for its effectiveness.

    The disclosure has prompted calls for the regulator to stop companies passing the cost of a discredited medieval practice on to their customers. Ofwat said any firm failing to meet its commitments to customers faced a financial penalty.

    A failure will not appear till a unit has passed final inspection

    I've seen them going around here listening to the end of a stick also

    "Christopher Hassall, a specialist in water management at the Leeds University school of biology, said: “This isn’t a technique, it’s witchcraft"
    what does a biologist know of scientific evidence his hearsay vs their hearsay? more poor journalism again.
