Have you read "how to win friends and influence people"?

OK Damian, that's enough.

Why are you guys getting so heat up about this ? It was obvious who it was right from the start, his other current ones are obvious too if you look carefully. His posts can be quite interesting and he does start some interesting threads.

Whats also interesting is the couple of posters who have contributed nothing to this thread yet just joined in to have a go at Damian.

Back to the original topic - I dont agree with giving away secrets. It is one thing to teach those who have a genuine interest and are willing to put in the work themselves. To just blatently expose to anyone who comes to the show is (in my opinion) wrong, and cant be good for magic.

i completely agree, if holiday parks are going to just "expose" secrets to the general public - its going to make what we do pretty meaningless.
Just my opinion.

Its unfortunate, but it has happened for hundreds of years, and never destroyed magic. Why should it now?

Im not familiar with the exposure of magic since the 1800s. Would anyone who does know about this care to explain what was exposed, the extent of exposure, and the context ?

Thanks
