The guy who dug the water well on my parents land used a dowsing rod. Interestingly, he chose to use the dowsing rod in the lowest point of the meadow... which probably saved him a few feet of drilling.
Dowsing seems like a great way to convince the customer that you should drill where it is convenient for you though.
"people were digging for water on a road because there was a pipe leak somewhere and it needed to be plugged. so here were bunch of men having dug an entire road section but nothing. this guy comes up. says to wait. he then holds rods (assuming dowsing rods) and says "here. dig here" and there was water there.
it can be a fluke but these men were tired and suddenly there was excitement.
Like the weakness of science is prostitution. Not for math or humanities, but for science it's huge. Purdue Pharma is famous for its prostitutions, their biggest exploit was the majority of the guilt and blame for the opioid epidemic. That was carried out by several prostitutions carried out carefully and with great expertise, beginning with getting the FDA to agree that their opioid lasted twice as much as it actually did. The trick there is never to say twice or more, you can't overdo it, you actually have to promise almost twice as much as you deliver, 12 instead of 7, not 12 instead of 5. Scientists can't just make numbers up, well they can and do, but there's limits: no getting caught, can't double anything, can't look stupid on television. The second prostitution was sending their hot pharma rep sales team out to "refocus" the doctors on the 12 hour schedule for their drug, despite literally all of their patients saying it never lasted anywhere near that long. In this case I'm saying they got the doctors to believe "science" that were more made-up numbers pulled out of thin air. There were other prostitutions, like with the lawyers that defended them in court, and the nonprofits who sucked up to them publicly for their gifts of ill-gotten gains.
And those pharma sales reps...surely they never actually sleep with the doctors? They just get super hot women for that job just to improve doctor's reading comprehension, like a hot teacher in a middle school, that'll learn those boys real good, surely. [Note: I know you're meant to say it differently, I'm being colloquial]

Am I OK? And you called me a bot? Are you a bot?

You don't actually care if I'm OK. Unless we've met perhaps, what's your name? My name is Daniel Cussen. Have we met?
Get real, medicine is a matter of life and death. Multilevel marketing is harmless if you're selling handicrafts, yeah then it's an immoral marketing technique. In medicine immoral marketing technique are prostitutions. Plural. Not an abstract noun, several counts of the transgression.
Like in Dr. Seuss, "One Fish Two Fish Red Fish Blue Fish":
One prostitution, two prostitutions...
And if google translate turns "técnicas inmorales de márketing" into "prostitution", general Artificial Intelligence is here. And don't think your English is that amazing, vaidhy.
prostitution (noun): 1. ... 2. the unworthy or corrupt use of one's talents for personal or financial gain. (credit: oxford dictionary of English)
I am somewhat surprised that someone did not think to look for an archaic or disused definition already...
It was a fluke
