So you can explain gravity?

I am satisfied it works, I was suggestion YOU have a go, if nothing
happens you can carry on being sceptical until then I win.

Here's the rub, Charlie and Sacha. I *have* experienced the ideomotor
effect with dowsing rods. But it wasn't water (or gold, or uranium)
that caused them to twitch. Getting the idea ?

So I'll repeat just in case you might have missed the offer earlier:

Excellent! There's no need to explain why it happens. You just
need to successfully pass a very simple test; no need for any
simple or complicated explanations.

So, Charlie, tell me when you're ready for the test. Since my
fees are going up with each new applicant, I'll split the winnings
with you - $999,998 to you and $2 to me. Unless Sacha beats you
to the cool million ... quick, time's running out.

Charlie, are you ready to take the test? I'm sure that you must
feel 100% confident that you'll pass the test. $999,998 to you
and $2 to me :-)

By the way, to help your planning for the test, you might like
to watch James Randi's tests of 100%-confident Australian dowsers

Hilarious :-))

Where is the test, what is the test, who is putting up the money? you
have not told us, if its not you, you are being very free with someone
else cash, and in any case why should I believe anything you say - you do
not after all believe me.
I personally couldn't not care less whether you believe it or not. and
since it has very little to do with gardening I am not interested in
prolonging this. I am quite happy for you to be right, but it still works
for me. Since I have never shown this to anyone or taken money for doing
I can not see why it should bother you.
And you still have not explained why newtons apple fell to the ground,
perhaps there is a prize for that too?
