Shawn,
Adequate research? What a joke! More than once I have found treasures in the outlying undergrowth surrounding old farm houses, parks, and school yards as MD'ers were enthusiastically scanning every square inch... resulting from their so-called adequate research. I was just drawn into the woods because that is where the LRL directed me. Most of those treasure were either too deep for any MD, or were glass bottles. In most cases however, the MD'ers were searching where their gut-feeling told them treasures were located. What a waste of energy. Besides, the outlying undergrowth was all grown up... swampy or rocky or too many mosquitoes or whatever other excuses they had. MD operators are prone to stay out of heavy undergrowth with hugh tree roots (gets their new boots too dirty and it's too hard to sweep their heads), or big rocks everywhere (bangs up their precious coils not alone themselve).
When and where was the last time you used a mag or GPR Shawn. If you have used them recently, did you find either of them to be consistent in all environments and locate exactly what you were looking for as advertised by their manufacturers. Do you really thing the TH'ing hobbyists will purchase a MD, mag, and GPR.
I agree, "Thank God for science"! As far as the "Black Arts" go, I see no connection whatsoever as to what anyone else believes or states. Just another cop out for those who can't use some common sense and/or get out of the traditional TH'ing paradigm.
Faith and belief won't find treasures... even for the big boys with huge investments. If you are saying that these guys are "real" TH'ers because of their sophisticated and costly equipment then how many do you know that have been successful. The average hobbyists can be more successful than these "one-shot" big dogs.
If you spend all of your entire existence trying to prove LRLs can't/don't work and denying yourself the joy and pleasure of enjoying the field... what a waste. The whole world just cannot be a scam, but to some it is and will always be!
