There is no RationalWiki without you. We are a small non-profit with no staff—we are hundreds of volunteers who document pseudoscience and crankery around the world every day. We will never allow ads because we must remain independent. We cannot rely on big donors with corresponding big agendas. We are not the largest website around, but we believe we play an important role in defending truth and objectivity. |

"Germany's oracle octopus, Paul, has become a worldwide celebrity for his apparent ability to accurately predict the outcome of football matches." Doubledork (talk) 19:21, 9 July 2010 (UTC)
- And rightly so. Our cute octopus represents the best of the public and gave those so-called "experts" a run for their money. I'm not surprised that the liberal BBC tries to smear his name by resorting to other experts trying to defend their undeserved status, but in due time, they shall be replaced with squid as well.
