Penn & Teller Get Hundreds to Sign a Petition Banning Water
All their petition-gatherer had to do is speak the language of the enviros, and she had hundreds who wanted to ban the evil chemical “dihydrogen monoxide.”
Too funny (some harsh language; HT My VWRC).
(One of these days I’m going to figure out why I can’t embed a YouTube vid successfully. Even copying other people’s HTML source isn’t working. :–< Zheesh.)

UPDATE: The first commenter made a point that “somehow” disappeared during my failed attempt to put in YouTube screen link — Before you laugh too hard, remember that the petitioners who vote are probably cancelling out those of sensible people.

- Nov. 29, 2006 — Recycling: It’s (Almost) All BS. This is another Penn & Teller production. The video in question isn’t available any more, but there is a short trailer with some harsh language here at Showtime. The trailer concentrates on the “entertainment” at the expense of making the important points, some of which are made at the original BizzyBlog link.
Sadly most of the dunderheads signing the petition are also likely to get into a voting booth and vote.

On the original youtube page, in a box to the right of the video, is a little window labeled “embed”. Copy that entire long string.
