Yesterday's New York Times ( May 15, 2005) Travel Magazine has a page and a half write up on The Magic Castle. Mentions go to Irma, Billy, Jason, Christopher,and Johnny Ace. "Even though the world of magic may have lost some luster in recent years--as when David Blaine was pelted with eggs by unimpressed Londoners--torches still burn here for the fading art of prestidigitation."
---Damn, now we're "fading".
