Having today off, I'm parked in front of the tv at the mercy of weekday programming. There's a thing about Houdini on the History channel and they're interviewing various people. They show a man who's "blacked out", i.e. you can only see his silhouette while he's talking. Fine, but then they identify him as Teller from Penn and Teller!

What's the point of blacking him out while he's talking if we all already know what he looks like?
