Bart:
	There's more than one way to tell if someone is lying.

	While the above SHOULD be sufficient, (and because there are some who 
have complained that I am too cryptic), I mean by that is that there are 
other means of telling of someone is truthful or lying other than 
leglimancy, although leglimancy is probably one of the more accurate 
methods. For example, if you know what the truth is in advance, that 
helps a lot. And police have long known that a good bluff will work 99 
times out of 100.
