Using maganets to soften water?

[Pat]

Gary, You need more flinders bars. See also Matthew Flinders.

Now if we all just join hands and ummmmmmmmmmm. There, did that soften your water? Put three used razor blades, previously resharpened by temporary storage in a pyramid in a fishbowl containing a mixture of colostrum and wheat germ and place the bowl atop the water heater. This will surely sosften your water. I gotta go, reflecting on new age crap gives me indigestion.

Right on Gary.

With all the plastic and aluminum in vehicles these days the residual induced magnetism doesn't require Degaussing but some vehicles have problems with the electronic systems. [img]/forums/images/icons/grin.gif[/img] [img]/forums/images/icons/grin.gif[/img]

Egon,

I just realized that with my Prius Hybrid it would probably recharge the battery as the car was pulled back up the hill. [img]/forums/images/icons/cool.gif[/img]

Don't let Pat know Gary. It might turn him Paranoid! [img]/forums/images/icons/grin.gif[/img] [img]/forums/images/icons/grin.gif[/img]

Pat would probably drive from Oklahoma to Moncton just to see if it would work. [img]/forums/images/icons/grin.gif[/img]

I appreciate your kind and determined post. You are absolutely correct, as is Consumer Reports. "Magnets DO NOT soften the water".

Nor do they do anything else in controlled tests where the placebo effect is eliminated. It's been done many times, NOT just by Consumer reports (not that I would trust anything those people say), and magnets have always failed to show any results.

No doubt about it, placebo effects can be powerful.

I'm sorry, disregard my previous vitriol, I mistakenly thought the topic was magnets. Had I realized we were discussing the effectivity of maganets I would have remained silent as I am not familiar with their use.

Spunk water, spunk water, injun shorts!
Spunk water spunk water, swaller them warts!
