Ok, maybe its just me but I'm REALLY confused on something. To try and not give it away, I will give as many details as possible.

The part where the spectator signs the corner, HOW would he not notice the the left and bottom edges are torn? Am I missing something here? If its a folded bill, why would the two edges be torn? Can someone PLEASE help me with this?

Thanks

The text specifies that the "long untorn edge" should be folded over, but I prefer to fold the long torn edge.

My fingers shade the short torn edge.

His thinking throughout the book is very provoking. But why would you have to "overprove" with both a torn corner AND a signature. Isn't a signature enough? This is where I think the routine suffers a bit.

Doesn't Mr Richardson mention that the signature is also to throw off magicians (or people who suspect a switch). Especially in the way he phrases it at the end (it implies that the bill was signed, not the torn-off corner).

I do not remember for sure if it is in the book or if he said it at the lecture... and I do not have the book with me to check right now.

But it is a very good routine!!! I especially like the hands-off look it has...
