Hmmmm....
I also was not skeptical before listening to Dell Winders.
It is beginning to look like Dell created his own skeptics. I wonder how many people come into this forum to ask Dell a question, only to find that Dell will not answer it, and will call them and egotistical idiotic skeptic from Carl's skeptic cult if they don't blindly believe whatever Dell tells them?
Could it be that Dell has created all these skeptics for his own purposes?
But why would Dell want to create skeptics from people who have not yet formed an opinion?
One answer that comes to mind is because he needs a reason to explain his LRL business failure. How can he explain this unless he has someone to point his finger at? It couldn't be Dell's own failure to convince people his gizmoes work that caused him to fail in the LRL business... therefore it must be somebody else who caused people to not buy his junk. So Dell created a new term to explain the mystery of his LRL business failure: "Carl's skeptic cult"
There is only one problem with Dell's explanation....
I am not part of any skeptic cult run by Carl or anyone else. I have never been skeptical about metal ions in the ground where long time buried metals are buried. In fact, I was one of the first people to give a real argument against Carl's notion that long time buried gold is the same as freshly buried gold. I also do not agree with people who think that there is no plausible method to detect long time buried gold from a greater distance than a conventional metal detector can find it.
The cult does not exist.
It is simply a word that was invented by Dell Winders to label anyone who will not blindly believe whatever he says.
It is part of "hillbilly logic" that Dell has adopted:
1. It helps me to sell Omnitron LRLs = Good, rational logic
2. It does not help me to sell Omnitron LRLs = Bad, irrational logic
3. People who will not believe me are skeptics from Carl's skeptic cult
So how did I come to considered part of "Carl's skeptic cult"? How did anyone become part of this cult?
I would speculate that there are more forum members than Fred and me who were not skeptical about what Dell says until after we heard what he said, and learned he was not willing to back up anything he says. He won't even back up his alleged double blind tests he says he performed to prove the rods work. Yet people who do not blindly believe whatever Dell says gets thrown into the skeptic cult, and are the branded as the people who caused Dell's LRL business failure.
I guess they are in Dell's mind.
After all, none of them bought an LRL from Dell, did they?
