Critical Thinking?

This is an exerpt from my Critical Thinking talk that I give. After a short series of demonstrations the audience is asked if it was all done using psychology, psychic powers, or magic tricks. Then folks are asked why they think what they think. It's surprising what folks decide on despite being told exactly what's going on before the demonstration begins. Remember experience doesn't always equal truth and seeing isn't always believing because sometimes we can misinterpret the data in front of us!
