Astropro's Website Of the Week Award ©2002 by Richard Nolle |
FEB 25, 2002 - Art of Cold Reading is part of James "The Amazing" Randi's website, on online bastion of skeptical thinking. Although Randi's objectivity is questionable - see the expose called sTARBABY by his erstwhile CSICOP colleague Dennis Rawlins - his expertise in fooling people is unassailable. (Randi's an accomplished stage magician.) And in that regard, Art of Cold Reading is a must-read. It'll clue you in to the cold reading techniques used by fake psychics, fake astrologers, mentalists and the like, at the very least. That should help you keep 'em on the up and up!
Technically speaking, Web Site Garage rates Art of Cold Reading excellent over-all, good in load time. By comparison, the page you're now reading rates excellent in both categories, with a load time of 6.16 seconds at 56k.
