Re: Fri. 5/9 'Will it Float?' Sorcery

Equally factual, though, is the statement "As the home audience, we
have no way of knowing whether the trick was
pre-arranged with a planted audience member or not."

The person giving over their gl***** in this trick has no bearing on
its result whatsoever, especially in a televised format. A discerning
viewer is always going to know that thereis a possibility that the
volunteer is in on the trick -- especially on a show like Letterman
that uses fake audience members regularly (Who Asked For It?, etc.)

The fact of the matter is that Penn forgot to indicate to the audience
that Paul's gl***** had disappeared. Without showing us that one pair
has vanished before another pair reappears, it's only natural to
assume that there are simply two pairs. Whether they're Paul's gl*****
or Irene Sweatstain from Armpit, North Dakota's.
