<![CDATA[Monty Python Manoeuvre]]>Please excuse me for what sounds like a stupid question, but could anyone tell me what the heck the Monty Python Manoeuvre is? It sounds like it has nothing to do with Monty Python. Also, it seems like a lot of people think it's cheating. What is it (not if it's cheating or not, but how do you perform it)?

This manuever is not a cheat. It is just thinking. You have the ability to think, so why not use it?

I have performed it before, and it doesn't seem at all like cheating. It works pretty well. Thanks again for letting me know.
