Oh another post, another new technique, another new drug (sorry, "supplement"), another interesting combination. Always people with such good results, so many questions. Will it work with this technique? Should I use sea salt or is regular salt acceptable? Which nostril first? Should I reverse the electrodes if I’m living in Austrailia? So many questions, so many different things to try...

Once upon a time there was a wise man... Well, opinions in the area in which he lived varied; some thought he was wise, others thought him a fool. Anyway, one morning he set out on his daily walk, walking around the hills of the area he’d lived all this life.

His nose led him down a road he’d not visited in a while. As he walked along he saw a new fence set on a piece of land. As he walked he could see the signs of new construction. He smiled; it was good to have new people in the community.

He walked along and stopped, leaning against the fence, standing in the shade of a tree. There he watched a most curious sight.

Working in the field was a man with a shovel. Part of the field seemed to be filled with shallow holes. The man would dig for a few minutes, pause, wipe his brow, move over a few feet and start digging again. This went on and on, each time the man digging down a few feet, then pausing and moving on. From the number of holes, this must have been going on for some number of days.

After an hour or so of this, the man finally noticed his visitor leaning against the fence watching. He put down his shovel and went over to the fence.

The two introduced themselves and traded pleasantries. The newcomer asked the wise man, "Having lived here all you life, you must know everything there is about this place.”

The wise man smiled and shook his head, admitting that he knew only a little about the area.

The newcomer asked, "Maybe you can help me. I’m trying to dig a well and haven’t found the right spot.”

The wise man smiled and told him there were many spots that would do, if he dug deep enough.

The newcomer said, "But maybe you could show me. I keep hitting hard spots.”

The wise man smiled again and told him: Many will do. Pick one and dig deep, dig deep.

(I’m not a wise man, not even a fool. I’m still learning to dig deep.)
