Another fun science site

Post by Dracomax »

I was looking at TVtropes, and before to long, I had come across this site with the exponential linking. I'm sure Ryan has seen it, but I thought others might find it interesting, too. I've spent 3+ hours on it today myself.

Denial is not falsification. You can't avoid a fact just because you don't like it.
"Data" is not the plural of "anecdote"
