I think this thread and Zone's whole attitude displays something very important. Some people misplace their skepticism. He is eager to debunk (or when he can't, ignore) all the rational explanations of these tricks, but he doesn't have anything near that criticism for the tricks themselves. Cold calls and magic tricks have been around forever and people who are fooled into thinking they prove the supernatural just haven't looked into or don't understand how they work.
