Advent, Day 17

[kyburg]

You know I love Mythbusters, right? Outside of my academic interest in it as a 'bench' for programming of its type (and that's a subject for another day) - it's damn good television.

But here's the tale of the one that got away. Sort of.

Funny and sad all at the same time! I seem to remember seeing them do this myth in some way, but it did not involve the mice, of course, on TV. I think they used something to measure the nutritional value, but I really can't remember how they did it.

I feel sorry for the mice, though. They were so starved eating that carboard that one of them finally resorted to cannibalism. I can understand Discovery's not wanting to show it.
