    I hate to be this guy, but I always give my friends a hard time for saying this one so I can't leave you exempt.
    It's not a "Hot Water Heater." It's a "Water Heater." If the water was already hot then it wouldn't need a heater. ;)

    @ARGuck: My water heater has a great rack, and legs that won't quit. Therefore, it is a hot water heater. QED.

    Granted, Mythbusters does some awesome stuff, but they really arent scientific in their methods. They never have large sample sizes, and never EVER tell you if the results to their experiments are statistically significant. I demand P values!!

    @natural selection: Yeah, I agree. I love Mythbusters, but it does irk me when they 'bust' a myth and very obviously have not tried (or don't have the capability) to actually try all variations. They don't have to call it plausible, but they also can't call it busted.

    I also still want a better test of the myth that a dogs mouf is cleaner than a humans. And different breeds. I think a bulldogs/bloodhounds mouf is dirtier, what with the jowls.

    "[They've] tested more than 700 myths, conducted nearly 2,300 experiments, set off 711 explosions and destroyed 104 vehicles"

    The single coolest sentence science has ever created.

    Also....that's it?

    Why do you have to go so fast and use so much fuel to escape the earth's gravity? Wouldn't it, like a car, be more fuel efficient to go more slowly to reduce drag from air resistance? I don't get why you can't reach orbit going slowly. Either way you're moving up more quickly than the earth's gravity is pulling you down.
