Another trick is...
To demonstrate how easily
people copy what they see.
If someone is following
behind you, when you are going into a room. Touch or
hold the side of the door frame as you are going in.
Then glance round and see what they do (THEY WILL
PROBABLY TOUCH THE EXACT SAME POINT).

N.B. People
on normal occasion will virtually never touch the
frame.

Subtle, don't you think? And if it does not work, then at
least you have not made a fool of yourself. This is a
good trick for a novice.

Hope you like it,

Gordon

P.S. Please call me Gordon, not
Gordo_ala_Moore. That name seems to stick. The number of Spanish
people who will try and talk to me during online chess
is unbelievable. I think Gordo is Latin for Fat, and
Spanish for Big/Fat. They have a lottery once a year
called El Gordo !!!. It means "the Big one" or
something. I wish I had chosen a different name . But too
many people know me by it. Oh Well.
