Thanks for sharing that. I'll agree it's pretty dubious, but not enough to stop me enjoying their other content. But I have a pretty high skeptic quotient for everything online to begin with so, a little light shilling isn't enough to turn me off of a channel that's otherwise entertaining and often thought-provoking.

That "experiment" definitely deserves the mythbusters treatment, though. Even if that brand breaks into pieces faster, that doesn't account for total breakdown or even what happens to its individual fibers after flushing. More data needed.
