Way to cop out.


The answer is quite obvious, and your failure to acknowledge that is 
telling enough. Yeah, I've got a chip, because you continually nitpick 
the language of my posts in order to tirelessly defend your precious 
"Late Show"; as if admitting *one* fault with the presentation will 
somehow find it's way back to whomever you're so petrified of offending.

Why was it necessary to perform the trick using Paul's gl*****?
In so doing, it introduces the *possibility* that something has been 
pre-arranged with him. If you deny that the *possibility* exists, then I 
have to question if you're playing with a full deck or not.

If the trick had been performed with a *random* audience member's 
gl*****, using the released balloon method that I described in another 
post, it removes 99% of any doubt that a duplicate pair of gl***** is 
employed.

The trick was weak as it was presented.... Penn's video explanation of 
why it failed was even weaker. He's ignoring the key point: Paul's 
inclusion in the trick automatically makes it suspicious. That was a 
fatal mistake, and being that it was the only trick P&T performed that 
night, the appearance was a rather lame one.
