XKCD responds to this better than I can: http://xkcd.com/397/

That aside, I've yet to see a conclusion on that show that wasn't reasonable.

"That aside, I've yet to see a conclusion on that show that wasn't reasonable."

Whenever the myth is about a secret project to such-and-such, they regularly use "we couldn't figure out how to do it" to conclude "it can't be done"; that isn't reasonable.

I'm generally a fan of the show, mind you.
