Excellent work.

I've seen the skeptic on a BBC program before, I think - travelling around villages showing a lot of common "magic" tricks were simply tricks and sleight-of-hand.

Well, not really, since I hate tying myself down to fixed defensive positions when I can better fire-and-manuever - plus we're not really digging foxholes in the current operating environment - but you get the picture.

Great story. Thanks for the link.

I absolutely hate your avatar image, though. It looks like the equivalent of something you'd see on a fundamentalist website.

I'm surprised that the guru didn't back off. What did he think, he was really going to kill him? Makes me wonder whether these gurus actually believe what they are preaching.
