Thank you for gracing us with your cyber-presence. One of my greatest experiences was seeing you perform at the late Wizard's Magic Camp. Incredible! My question is: How can we join comedy and magic, while preserving the artistic integrity of our craft? It is a difficult balance. How have you developed your magic and comedy to maintain the right mix? David Copperfield was funny and charming AND magical- but he hasn't had a TV special in years. Blaine was magical, but not funny. How do you suggest we bring magic back to the TV-watching public, in these more cynical times? Can we? ~Joshua Logan Pete Biro V.I.P. 17755 Posts Posted: Jun 1, 2004 11:16am       I guess we'll have to wait for Sir William to wake up. Here it is only 8:20 am on the Left Coast.
