    How do mentalists do what they apparently do?

    In general, I'm not referring to any particular mentalist. Feel free to pick specifics, that you're aware of, if you like. We were discussing mentalists, IRL I mean to say. Apparently they do these impossible mind-reading feats. And I was wondering how exactly they do this. (Me, I haven't...

    The long-awaited analysis of the JFK murder by noted prosecutor and author Vincent Bugliosi is due to be published this year. As expected, it doesn't look good for the conspiracy mongers. Not that they'll ever let the president rest in peace. Bolding mine. From Amazon.com.

    A new, clearly dishonest behavior has just showed up here. When one points out a fact about the present political climate, the lunatic right puts lies in one's mouth, and then starts screaming disingeniously about how one has asserted that it's all Bush's fault. In short, they lie outright...
