Hi Tom, Ken et al!

While looking for something else, I found the Welz-Chi
Orgone page and it had a snippet that refers to orgone as
being detectable by scinillation counters;

http://www.orgon.org/

----------------------

According to Wilhelm Reich, orgone energy is a primordial
cosmic energy; universally present and demonstrable
visually, thermically, electroscopically and by means of
Geiger-Mueller counters. In the living organism: Bio-energy,
Life Energy.

Throughout human history, Life Force has been used by humans
for many purposes. This use of life force was result of
practical experience.

site with testable 'orgone boosted radionics' claims;

-------------------------

Correlation of radiation anomalies with dowsing and ley line
detections from the Dragon Project;

http://www.isleofavalon.co.uk/edu/archive/ndlstone/99pstscr.html

But it was the results of radiation and magnetic surveys
that proved the most surprising.[7] Just as the dowsers and
psychics had been saying for so many years, there were very
definite physical anomalies: and yet, just like most
psychic-related phenomena, they were highly elusive, with
glaring differences at one visit, and nothing at all the
next.

Some places showed natural radiation levels higher than the
'background' level for the surrounding area; and some, like
the Merry Maidens circle in Cornwall, showed both
above-background and below-background radiation levels in
tightly-defined areas - a theoretical impossibility:

"Overall there is a tendency for Cornish circles to be below
background as if they stood at the centre of a saucer of
radiation contours. This was not a clear pattern, but a
trend. That was blown, however, by [Alan] Bleakley's results
at the Merry Maidens circle.

Here he obtained a peak of radiation readings much higher
than anything obtained in the environment! Nevertheless this
was an exception. A visit to the site by Don Robins in June
85 resulted in him being able to demonstrate on film that
the geiger readings approximately halved when brought within
a few feet of the ring of stones."[8]

In effect, the circle was shielding the area inside its
circumference: literally a shield-ring, paralleling the
earth-acupuncture concept we saw earlier. And, paralleling
the earth-energy/orgone concept, Alan Bleakley recorded at
Boskednan Nine Maidens circle in 1982 a steady drop in
background radiation levels as a thunderstorm developed,
suggesting that an atmospheric component of background
radiation was being suppressed by the electrical activity of
the atmosphere.[9]

---------------------

So it appears there is some kind of tenuous correlation with
dowsing sensitives and radiation as would be detected by a
scintillation counter.

The definition for a 'scintillation counter' is;

A device for detecting and counting scintillations produced
by ionizing radiation. (and gets its name from the light
flashes that are produced in the presence of these ionized
rays.)

Perhaps with a photomultiplier type circuit where one photon
produces anywhere from 100 to many thousands of photons due
to amplification,

this circuit would use a sensitized photon detector,
probably UV that is hooked into a super sensitive amplifier
that has noise suppression circuitry to compensate for
thermal hisses and pops.
