Reply #7 - Today at 8:38am David Copperfield does not want anyone to think he has magical powers. His show works indepentant of whether you believe it is the result of magic or careful planning. Copperfield provides a service, i.e. entertainment which people pay to enjoy. Because some polyexs choose to use PL comparison questions. you cannot assume from that fact alone that PL questions are necessary to all techniques.
Explain to me, please, why you think someone would pay for me to frighten them into a confession?
HUH ?!?!?!!?
I never said anything about Copperfield wanting people to belive he had magical powers. I said believing in polys is like believing that copperfield has magical powers. Where did you get that skew from? Oh wait your a PG hmm... polys are indeed used to frighten confessions out of people. They believe it can detect lies and are therefore voodooed into believing it works Kind of like a placebo (placebo is a preparation which is pharmacologically inert but which may have a therapeutical effect based solely on the power of suggestion)Hence the pg test they think the machine can catch them in a lie, and the result is the same as if the test really does work.
p.s. I think your just mad beacuse you got compared to David Copperfield maybe Ill use David Blaine next time......
