This may be old news - the link was in the card section of the Café - but this is a video documentary of John Scarne doing card demonstrations. At about the 4:00 mark he does a cups and balls demonstration. Nice cups, too - they stack without rocking! :^P

Well, he solves the age-old "problem" of having balls roll off of the table.
He uses squares, instead!

I couldn't get the video to play. Was it taken down? I got to the linked page but all I got was a blank black screen.

It's still working. It takes several seconds to get to the title screen.

I must be a member of the "too late" club. The site says the video is gone. Does anyone know if it was moved??

I am late too. Looks like we just formed the 'too late' club.

For those of you who missed it (or anyone who wants to see it again) there's another link here. Enjoy!
