S.W. Erdnase backwards is E.S. Andrews.
Get a copy of "The Man Who was Erdnase". It's a great read.

[FunTimeYoHap]

Did you check out Shark at the Table on Dai Vernon's excursions into Mr. Andrews' work?  That's what made me get The Expert At the Card Table.
I'll check out The Man Who Was Erdnase for sure.

We've said too much.
