I think it will be bad for Mythbusters to play party to a Roman Emperor idea, especially with Obama who is using a ploy based upon his astrological sign of Leo which is a house of the Sun.
I am taking faith that the producers of the series can see right through this, besides by december Obama may not even be in office.
He did it to Iron Chef as well. Pissed me off the way those chefs sucked up to Michells and her sewer garden.
