Harry Houdini
  
    Read there is a new book out on 
Houdini (Who died / was killed on Holloween) 
- "The Secret Life of Houdini," by Wm. 
Kalush and Larry Sloman.  They say he 
was doing under-cover work for Scotland 
Yard and in the US.  He was very big 
on debunking spiritualism and said it 
was all phoney (which most of it was) 
and duplicated their tricks.  'Suspicion 
is that he was killed by some Spiritualists.  
(Another vested interest - Houdini's 
debunking of spiritualism caused them 
to loose customers or suckers.)
