"I have to say that I think Matt has come up with a solution to one of the major problems in these 'logic' type effects.

After a simple and quick process of visualization by the participant, the performer is able to divine the exact word accurately without pumping. Nothing is spoken or written down by the participant.

This routine can be repeated instantly for the same participant or can be performed for multiple participants simultaneously. The principle behind the basic method is a very novel one and can find many other applications. ...

"Dr. A" was a real-life figure, having devoted 33 years of his life as a very successful office reader and clairvoyant. He gave Robert Nelson full permission to publish his unique secrets, however he requested that he remain anonymous.

He devised, created and used what Nelson regarded as one of the finest - if not the finest - methods of giving private readings and (apparently) reading the minds of others.

The system described is so subtle and versatile that Dr. "A" and Nelson both were able to give thought-staggering readings and demonstrations under the most adverse of conditions, whether...
