As reported by astgtciv@mit.edu:
"You know the Gordon Levy story? Well, Gordon Levy was the chief of White
House security [or something] and he had a reputation for great self control,
as he once demostrated to a reporter that he can put out a cigarette in
the palm of his hand... I never heard of him ever doing the cigarette trick
again, so he really MUST have had great self control..."
