Well, on this subject they are good.

First, you should probably mention in your post and in your title that Penn & Teller work for 10 minutes or so debunking 9-11 conspiracy theorists.

Second, you should warn people that the language on the video is pretty bad, and definitely Not Safe For Work. It isn't uncalled for language, given who they're going after, but kids probably shouldn't watch it.

It IS a well-done and entertaining debunking.

Dittoes, though, on the language. Not for work or youngin's.

I admit I screwed up on warning about the language. Not that I seem able to edit the post to fix it.

Our opinions of P&T are polar opposites.

Thanks for this.

A co-worker of mine has some "mis-directed" relatives that this is perfect for.

Sorry.. I posted them because I thought they did a good job on this one video. I did not mean to endorse anything else they did.

Thanks for posting this.

Also:
1. There's some good advice on this thread about including a "graphic language" warning,
2. Penn and Teller tend to take a more libertarian (and sometimes liberal) viewpoint on some issues, and so people around here are skeptical
3. They do a terrific job with this video.
4. Welcome aboard, don't be bashful, keep on posting.

Regards,
LH

No problem. My first post started off a major flamewar, and I was branded a troll for a good while after!

Admin Moderator: can you please add "(Video debunking 9-11 conspiracists)" to the title? Thanks.

Good show. Penn Gillette gets it.

It's not a bad thing to be a skeptic, we all are at times. Idiocy is singular....but that's redundant.

I have several CDs of their HBO series. It's like anything else. I agree with some parts, and don't care for others.

I don't believe you needed to issue any warning, given the show calls itself Bullsh!t. It's clear from the title.
