re: 6 year old reported floating away in helium balloon
It really does look like a publicity stunt and I thought that when the first post went up and then again this morning when they showed the family being interviewed.
It was all a bit to stilted for me to believe it was not a setup.

Anyone else think those tears sound very fake? And the middle kid keeps shaking his head and tells his brother "don't say" when the father asks him what happened....
More of the interview where the kid says about it being for the show.... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BF7vfyVoNkE

Well, those who suspected a hoax, take a gold star and go to the top of the class.

For the first time, 25-year-old researcher Robert Thomas reveals to Gawker how earlier this year he and Richard Heene drew up a master plan to generate a massive media controversy using a weather balloon. To get famous, of course.
