Theres a million bucks for that? Cool. I'd have a go, but I'd probably fail...
The reason is this: as soon as I begin to doubt myself, everything goes out the window. If I think "Dave is.... there!" and completely block out any negative thoughts, more often than not, I can find Dave. However if I don't manage to block all doubt from my mind, I end up with "Dave is there.... or.. maybe there..." and then I'm totally lost.
So under pressure (and there's no pressure quite like the scrutinising eye of James Randi) I fear I would fail quite spectacularly. And without the guarantee of a million big ones, I could not afford the ticket to see Mr Randi anyway.
Sounds like a cop-out of an excuse, huh? Oh well.
