wow, I can't believe that I actually read every page of this thread. WHEW! Heated.
To answer your question about the fastest way to learn, I would have to agree with Mr. Draven and other members on this thread about a good understanding of the effect or sleight, much practice, and experience doing it. A lot of experience.
And I would also like to touch on the fuzzy parts of this thread. It would be wonderful to see you give the more experienced and wiser members of these forum. Mr. Draven, for instance, has definetely gotten my full respect by his knowledge of the art we all perform here, and his knowledge of all that has to do with it. I would have to say that he has quite a bit more experience than many of us, including you and I. Whatever happened to "respect your elders" or in this case, the members who have intelligent thoughts about magic and the like? The lude comments have got to come to an end. This is getting worse by the post. So please, if you want to discuss something with the community we have here, please try to not be so rude. All we want to do is help. And no I'm not trying to be a mod (even though that would be totally wicked) I'm just trying to get things through your head. There has been many intelligent posts in this thread, but every one who has posted them, you have insulted or taken the wrong way. Idk whats happening that you would have to be rude, but please, I would like to help. And if you read this post and take it to heart, I apologize, I just don't approve of people being rude to the people trying to help.
