Dad had a chance to see "Broken Wings," and it is the same gimmick, exactly, as described in The Psychic Agenda (published in 1996) as "The New Add-a-Number Pad" in the effect Harmonica Convergence. There is no question about this.
He also wondered why Mr. Christopher contacted Ed Fowler and not him about the origin of the device. This would have cleared up any question at all very quickly. Jonathan. |

Hi Guys,
I have since been in contact privately with John Riggs and in swapping manuscripts it turns out that this is the same gimmick as his, despite it being created independently! John got there first, so full credit on the workings of the gimmick are his! The handling and routines are very different in both John's publication and mine, but you'll notice that now on my site the subtitle and notes regarding John's release have been added and Broken Wings is still on the market with John Riggs' kind permission! http://www.mindlapse.net/brokenwings All the dealers that carry Wings have been notified of this credit and asked to add it to the product description. I know it's been added to Lybrary already, not sure about the others yet, we're only just coming out of the other side of the Christmas holidays. My contacting Carlyle was simply because he was the contact I was given to discuss the issue with originally - Once we'd covered that our pads were different all was sorted in my eyes, but evidently we'd been discussing a completely different product! I would've sorted this sooner had I known that there was still error, I always do my best to be open and honest with all my releases, but either way it's all sorted now and the parties concerned (both John and myself) are happy with the outcome. This kind of thing happens all the time in our industry, while I send out pre-copies to knowledgeable guys I know of all my releases before they're even teased, sometimes things are missed. There's a lot of GREAT work out there that many of us have probably never heard of, so it's a constant learning curve. Thanks again for your interest in my work and whether you're using John's routines or my routines with this pad - I wish you all success in your performances! ROCKnROLL, DC.

Nice to see this settled in a civil way.
Wouldn't it be a nice start to the New Year if members would point out, without connotations attached, when one effect seems similar/the same as another effect and ask the creator of the new effect whether he/she checked on this and, if not, to please do so. There's plenty of time for acrimony if such a responsible request is ignored. But then maybe I'm still hung over from celebrating The Eve. |

Hi
Just to say that I downloaded this from Mindlapse (I believe this is Dee's site) on Jan 1st - I can't remember if the Riggs mention was on the site then but I CAN say that the manuscript that I downloaded on the 1st doesn't yet contain any credit to Riggs but I am sure that Dee will sort this out sooner rather than later. Regards Steve P.S. By the way I love it - Poundworld are selling 150 page reporters pads in packs of 2 for £1 - I bought a few and it took me 10 minutes to get my first pad ready to go - I've practised the method for about 20 minutes non-stop and it is already smooth as silk.
