Somewhere on the Magic Cafe, which I can't use due to email problems, the Berglas Effect was brought up (recently, as it turns out). Someone mentioned something about it being sold by some other man to a great many people, but the man died before it was released. Apparently Steve Martin bought it.

This struck me as shocking, as I had wondered a few nights ago if Steve Martin knew this, as he is a card magician, and is probably richer than most.
Anyhow, is this story true?
Does The Mind and Magic of David Berglas explain the effect?
Does it explain it completely?
Also, Kaufman was said to be putting out a books this year on Berglas card magic. Will it go over the topic?
I know this is something few of you may have knowledge of, but any info would be great!
I put this in the off topic because I'm not really looking for much help in performing, and didn't want to clog up that section of the forum any more.
Everyone's at the MC.

Thank you,
