Well this will be the impetus for me to upgrade to Pandora One. I've been meaning to anyway -- I'd like to ditch the ads, too. - Ben Hanten

"Almost every episode they do something wrong/stupid in their tests. General reasons why: * When testing anything which depends on physical strength or ability they use what they have and base their conclusions on it. For example: The ninja episode testing a ninja's ability to stay under water for a long period of time and appear to kill his enemy with a blow dart. They concluded no one could stay under water for a long period of time because Tory couldn't last 10 minutes under. However, the survival time for an average person at 50 degrees (I believe MythBusters tested 65 degree water) is 2 hours (see Steve Colgate on Sailing). A more fit person is likely to be able to last even longer. At 65 degrees, the average time is of course much, much longer. Just because Tory can't stand cold water doesn't mean the average person can't. * They guess on materials used and give up easily. A gun shell is not just any gun shell. A tarp is not just any tarp. A tire is not just any tire. Something..." - Gary R. hess
