Also, the first two demonstrations were great. I hung a potatoe, gave it a nudge, and asked the swinging object "which direction is Rex's car", "Which direction is his cat walking?, and "Which direction is his wife?" The object swung toward his car, then swung toward his cat, then turned and started swing toward his wife. Then his kids came to see what we were doing and started asking several questions.
I wrote yes, no, next question, and I don't know on paper, placed it under the swinging potatoe and let the potatoe swing in the direction of their answers. The potates will stay swinging in one direction. When a question is asked, it will turn and swing in the direction needed. His kids told everybody at their school I discovered on my visit the following day. There was a whole crowd of school kids asking for me to perform a trick or two. I would just hang a pendelum on their finger and let them ask questions. The pendelum never fails to stun them.
The second affidavit writer was a good one as well. I did similar tricks with a rock tied to a string attached to a stick. I nudged the rock and it would swing in whatever direction I commanded. I first asked him, "What happens when I lift the pendelum and let it swing in one direction?". He said it just keeps swinging until it stops. I pointed my finger in a direction other that the pendelum is swinging and it turned around and began swinging the exact direction my finger is pointing. Then again and again. I can do it over and over.
