 A Balanced Response to the Anti-Divining Rhetoric of E.H. Boudreau
  As it happens, I also am a geologist and practising groundwater consultant, based in Scotland, with long experience of both mineral exploration and hydrogeology in the Southern and Northern hemispheres; that is at least equal to the pedigree upheld by Boudreau in his introduction to the article.
Conversely, Diviners have a responsibility to themselves, to their art, and to their clients, to be as thorough and professional as possible about their work, and to develop a good understanding of hydrogeology as well.
One of my ideals is to see an end to the adversarial politics between geologists and diviners, and to see the best of geoscience and divining being applied together to the majority of groundwater developments, to the benefit of all.
