The only facts here are that you and Chris make money together Wrong again! Please may I refer you back to my comment about getting your facts straight! Quote:
What I said still holds true. You might like his stuff, but the opinion holds less value than that of one who gains no profit from Chris' successes. Please see above. Yawn! Quote:
The NY Rangers are owned by Newsday Newspaper. They add that note to every article/editorial which deals with the team to disclose potential bias. Funny you should compare this situation to newspapers. You would make a very good journalist... Quote:
Please note. I did not quote you in my comment about bringing out our business partners to advocate for our controversial products. How do you know it was about you and not Saturn Magic, a dealer? Interesting. Really? 
I'm sorry Robvs, but I have better things to do with my time than to engage with those who blatantly question my integrity. This thread is about Chris' product and perhaps, if it's ok with you, we can get back to discussing that! Iain. |

They think they can say whatever they like, no matter how libelous, without facing retribution. Iain. |

Great trick, I find one thing could be improved (may be for version 2?): a way to compute the card without looking at the calendar. It would take extra practice but I feel it would be still a plus.

Moran,
It isn't unfair to call you a business partner with Chris. You reside on camera together for products, you exist in the credits together (for example: "The Light"). Now if it is absolutely true that you and Chris have not ever profited from the same product I will retract my statement and agree that I am out of line. . But please clarify this. I do not doubt your integrity, but biases do indeed exist. If someone put food on my plate I am likely to think he and his work is great. |

Jan, no formula can describe this. I tried.
Odd/Even have different meta-patterns on the front side. At that point it would be easier to memorize everything.

The Light, 52 vs Joker Project and Dupes (on which I appeared) were all done because of my friendship with Chris and Gary. I have NEVER profited from any products of Chris' - I do hope this is clear? I'm rather irritated that I'm having to defend myself when I've done nothing wrong. Those who know me will be aware that as far as products are concerned, if I don't have anything nice to say, I don't say anything. Can we please get back to reviewing Chris' trick! Iain. |

Please accept my apology. I was out of line and incorrect.

There is definitely a pattern that can be used which means hardly any memory work.

Which Cassidy source has the best description of his 'Chronologue'? I was going to get his Mental Miracles DVD, but then I started reading about The Artful Mentalism...
Thanks, ryan |

The most up-to-date description is in "The Artful Mentalism of Bob Cassidy."

I think watching Bob perform in front of the audience (e.g. the way he addresses the guy who interrupts saying "it's my birthday!") is a treat.

There is definitely a pattern that can be used which means hardly any memory work. The sequence has a pattern: no doubts. The sequence head (i.e. the first good card for each month) doesn't have a pattern. Front and back have different "head" sequences. Odd and even fronts have different "head" sequences. Any formula expressing this would be more complicated than memorizing or glimpsing. See Bob Cassidy's Mental Miracles for a valid point on this.

I rarely do public appearances, but I will be at MindVention in November and most likely back at the Magic Castle some time after that.
Where do you live? |
