I like that show on Discovery. Is there anyone else here that enjoy it too? The two main hosts Adam savage and Jamie Hyneman are atheists, think I have mentioned that before. But for those who don't know might find it to be intresting.
Adam have acctually in a intreview said that he wanted to bust the myth of creationism. Would be cool if they were allowed to do it.

Jamie Hyneman. He built one of the first full body spinners for robotwars. He and Grant Imahara are still active in Battlebots.

Does anyone have a picture of when Hyneman didn't have a mustache?

It's a fun show. I like how they think like normal people, and do things "to see what happens", when normal people don't have the know-how or means to test these things.
It's a great "armchair science" format.

Holy cow! That would be an awesome show! Just imagine the hell they would have to pay (no pun intended) for producing an episode like that!
Would you happen to know where I can find a transcription, video or audio of this interview?

Hey, thanks, Giff!
I think that Discovery Channel will not let him do the show. They are probably afraid that something that controversial would loose too much of their fan base for both the channel and the program.
This is quite unfortunate, because I would love to see the creationism myth busted on prime-time cable! Hopefully the Mythbusters guys would have a good enough episode to convince people and change a couple of minds out there, but if nothing else, the episode would at least make people think and begin to question what they think they know.
