I fully agree with Sam. Each and every mentalism method I've read so far can be presented as at least two different effects, and usually much more.
For example:
I read your mind /
you read my mind /
the pencil read your mind /
I influenced you /
you influenced me /
now how comes your note says "Love" and my note says "Want to go to bed with me?"

It's all in the presentation, and the words and meanings you plant in everyone's minds.

saving you the trouble of trying to re-invent... What your asking about was invented by Maurice Fogel, in a "bewitching" way many years ago

It is incredibly detailed- and concise. Each time I delve back into it, I have learned from experience and time, and I realised that it was already in the pages of this book.
I think Eshly, when I began, I loved the book, because it was a book of some nice tricks and 'secrets'. Now it means so much more than that, and really holds a value to me.

Not to mention an entire career

Many tend to forget the fact that there have been many careers based on little more than the original 13 separate mail order lessons long before the book version came out (and waaaay before most PK type effects entered the picture (other than Seance settings) but especially metal bending).

While I loathe any and all tears, believing them overly obvious as well as exposed, I absolutely love billets and the many ways of working with them. If you can master billet work and how to use your Swami you can have a complete career quite literally at your finger tips. The only other skills you need is a gift for gab (knowing how to "read" others and paint things to fit your demonstration) and in my experience, a thorough understanding and working knowledge of Muscle Reading (including Pendulum & Dowsing type work).

It's amazing just how far these few things can take someone.
