File this under: doesn't this, like humans driving automobiles and our vast musical abilities, make you think that h. sapiens sapiens is a bit overengineered for a group of African plains apes?

I'll follow suit with this admiration of superior prestidigitation.

Always appreciate seeing a professional performing his craft well.

Mr. D. Glass, darkblack and CapD: You need to understand that Ricky Jay is one of the very finest card technicians on the planet. He is a magician's magician, which is to say that he utterly intimidates others of his craft...who know EXACTLY what he is doing and cannot for the life of them duplicate it.

His manipulation is probably as close to poetry in motion as anything you can see: Don't ask how, just enjoy...
