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. |
Fighting pseudoscience isn't free. We are 100% user-supported! Help and donate $5, $10, $20 or whatever you can today with ![]() ![]() |

The most interesting phrase in science is not 'Eureka!," but, "That's funny...'" -Isaac Asimov--75.118.187.203 (talk) 16:33, 14 July 2013 (UTC)
- In fact, it seems that the original phrase was: The most exciting phrase to hear in science, the one that heralds new discoveries, is not “Eureka” but “That’s funny...”

- It's cool. I hope you have an interesting time here. Just one little point. It's a good idea to sign your posts with ~~~~ or (perhaps more easily) click the little pencil icon towards the top left of the edit box. That way your name and the date are automatically appended. :-) --Weirdstuff (talk) 11:43, 16 September 2013 (UTC)
