It is possible to read the future, and you don’t even have to sacrifice a pidgeon…

Yes, it’s true. I heard it from this old chinese geezer that always hangs around the park playing Go.

You do know what Go is, right? No? Well, it’s an ancient tactical boardgame where you put down black and white stones. Games can last from 30 minutes to days on end.

Anyways, this duke told me you only needed to play a game of Go, and all the time both you and your opponent needed to consentrate on the subject you want to know about without thinking about anything else for the entire game (not even the game at hand).

Now, if you manage this, and it’s harder than it sounds, you can read the future in the pattern of the stones…
