Aren't you? Similarly, I am pretty sure Rossi is running an illusion. Exactly what illusion and how it's done, I am not sure. Several people have proposed ways that seem plausible to me even though they don't to you. I never said I *know* Rossi is faking. I am saying it is by far the most likely possibility. I suppose there is a small chance that he is for real in which case the way he has gone about things should get him tarred, feathered and run out of town on a rail (to use an auld American expression).
