Doug,
I was hazy on exactly how the Si Stebbins Secret works since it was quite some time ago when I studied it, but common sense tells you that all four suits have to be in the same numerical sequence (but starting at different points) before the Faro shuffles are done. I had forgotten that the breaks in the running singles process was used to achieve that.

For those that work with Si Stebbins, learning to do the Si Stebbins Secret casually and effectively would be a great addition to their arsenal.

Thanks Jan for stating the real answer so clearly...
