Amazing - how does this work??

Hi all, I found this on the web, and I'd love to know how this works. I was lousy in Maths 
but maybe one of you could explain it. I'll put the link in the next post to make sure it shows up right.

Great, I saw it long time ago, it is not very easy to guess what happen, but in the end you will discover it

Nikos, thanks for letting me standing in the rain! 
The only thing I have found out so far is that the sum of digits is very often the same, and that the end result very often has one particular sign.
If I am not completely nuts it must be based on the theory of probability.
But I still don´t understand it right.

Let me tell you dear Anjte,
1. All possible combinations of 2 digit numbers give results.
2. Everytime you do it, ALL the results have the same symbol (sign)!
3. To check it, use many times the sane 2 digit number and you will find out, that always there is different result (sign)!

Ok, click the link: [LINK]
Think of a two-digit number,
add the two numbers together,
subtract the result from the first two-digit number,
look up that result in the signs list on the right,
remember the sign matching your result,
click the sphere
That´s it!
What do you say?

Although I must admit that I felt much more comfortable with thinking it was magic!
