In a number of threads in this forum, somebody poses a question which touches on the differences between magic and mentalism (and mental magic). When that happens, somebody else almost always says, "There are lots of threads on this -- use the search function."
Searching for "magic v. mentalism" does indeed produce a lot of results -- more than 1,000. I'm wondering if any veterans of these discussions might be willing to post links to the threads they thought were the most useful, perhaps the ones that generated more light than heat. I'm interested in catching up on the history of this discussion in the Magic Café, but as there are more than 5.3 million messages and I probably only have a couple of decades left to live, I would welcome a nudge in the right direction.
It's still magic even if you know how it's done.

Just simply go back 3-5 pages here without the search function. They almost all contain the same people and information (and identified problems that leads to this issue).

Thanks, Mindpro. I'll take a look.

Here's a very helpful discussion I found in answer to my own question. (Finding it was a good lesson: I need to explore the powers of the "advanced search" function before starting up a new thread!)
