One of the easiest fools to trick is a half-educated fool who thinks that knowledge in one field makes him expert in other fields. And people enjoy being fooled. That explains the continuing popularity of magic and illusion as entertainment. To the author: at least admit that you don't know what you are talking about and that you could have been deceived.
