Principles of misdirection, sleight of hand
Some of the oldest tricks in the book were put to use on 9/11.

www.youtube.com/watch?v=_qQX-jayixQ&eurl=http://www.thepentacon.com/






1. Palm: To hold an object in an apparently empty hand.

2. Ditch: To secretly dispose of an unneeded object.

3. Steal: To secretly obtain a needed object.

4. Load: To secretly move a needed object to where it is needed.

5. Simulation: To give the impression that something that hasn’t happened, has.

6. Misdirection: To lead attention away from a secret move.

7. Switch: To secretly exchange one object for another.

2. Omigod, Nebula!
You've got it! How could we have been SO blind? Oh, wait...maybe you could explain how 9/11 was pulled off using:

1. Palm: To hold an object in an apparently empty hand.

2. Ditch: To secretly dispose of an unneeded object.

3. Steal: To secretly obtain a needed object.

4. Load: To secretly move a needed object to where it is needed.

5. Simulation: To give the impression that something that hasn’t happened, has.

6. Misdirection: To lead attention away from a secret move.

7. Switch: To secretly exchange one object for another.

Please be specific. Or, is this another of your unintentionally ironic posts?

7. Add one more...
8. Confusion: Post meaningless forum messages that divert people's thought processes away from important matters to issues of no importance to anyone.

8. OOOhhh... I know...

Nebula is trying to tell us that he's palming off a load of something that should normally go into a ditch.
