Sorry to bother you but were exactly in Ranma 1/2 does it say that the
spring of drowned man will cure Ranma? Did the characters just figure it
out on their own or did someone tell them?

Rumiko Takahashi has said in interviews that Spring of Drowned Man will
cure Ranma et. al.  That makes it canon, IMHO.

My question is, why didn't Ranma et. al. just jump in the right pool
after they got cursed?  Especially since it appears the Guide had a map
of the pools?  For those who say "He made it after Ranma left,"  I
counter that the Guide always knew the name of the pool people fell into
*before* they emerged, so he must have all the pools memorized.
