I hate to see you have to eat your laptop Nigel but the image made me smile. I can vouch for the fact that Astralcat is a very recent forum contributor and not connected in any way to past 'feuds'. I see him as someone who is on journey and travelling down roads that maybe those of us who are older have had a look at and turned back - I know I have been down the crystal/ alternative healing route before deciding ... perhaps not. I do still very much believe in the power of creative visualization which is not that far removed. If you asked me to demonstrate it I wouldn't be able to. I know nothing about dowsing and, given I've been a bit grumpy on this forum recently, decided to sit this one out. I still have an open mind on the subject, prepared to be persuaded at some point.
