As kids, we would get two glasses (not the same design), fill one with the liquor and one with milk. Drink the liquor, pour the milk down the drain, wash and dry the glasses thoroughly, fill both with liquor and he would taste it and always figured which had had the milk in it...............We had to be careful though to use at least ONE glass that had never had milk in it. When we tried with two glasses that had had milk in them, he got that correct as well. We tried it innumerable times - even setting it up BEFORE he was even in the house.......and when he arrived and taste tested, he figured which was which........to this day I don't know if it was a trick, lucky guesses, or he actually COULD tell the difference.............. Now, if I could only remember which HE it was, I could grow fond of that memory...............[/QUOTE]
