Dear Ann Landers,
e have two sons. For almost three years my husband and I have wanted another child but we've had no luck. About a month ago my sister said she'd like to try the needle trick on me to determine whether or not I'd have more children. She took a threaded needle and rubbed it across my middle finger. Then she dangled the threaded needle over the top of my hand, steadying it between her thumb and index finger until it stood perfectly still. If the needle remained still it meant that I would not have any more children. If it moved back and forth it meant a boy. If it moved in circles it meant a girl. We tried it three times. Twice the needle moved back and forth, meaning I had two boys, which was right. The third time it stood still, indicating I would not have any more children. This past week six differ-ent women tried it on me, and the results were the same every time. I know this sounds nutty, but the accuracy of these tests is amazing. How do you explain it?-D.L.
