Delayed reaction

Isn't it obvious?

You may recall that in July 2007 we told you the story of PP and his magic black cap.
A storm of protest has broken out because no-one has seen the cap.

---------------------
Dear Wigsters,
I have not seen a magic black cap and I am starting to believe that the whole story was made up.
Please clarify.

Dear Non-Wigster
Get yourself to worldwidewig.co.uk and get wigging.  Meanwhile we can answer your question.
The magical cap has been worn every day for at least a month, but is invisible.  We know it's there because PP isn't shivering.

Dear Wigsters
OK, ok...I'm now prepared to accept that the hat is invisible... I'm even prepared to accept that PP is wearing it right now, but there is one thing that still bothers me. Say that PP is metaphorically walking along the high street minding his own business as he takes in the sights and smells of the local town, when all of a sudden, whoosh, his hat is blown clean off your head by a local gust. Now an ordinary hat would have a tendency to be found, but an invisible one does lend itself rather well to indefinite camouflage. How would the cap be found? Does he also have an invisible chin strap to prevent such a situation? Does the hat emit a high pitched noise to enable it reclamation? Does PP have a cap homing device?
--------------------
Dear Non-Wigster
You are correct.  Also, PP's ferret lives in the hat so this has never happened.  We hope that clears it up.
