Support critical thinking with Skeptoid.com

Highly recommended
Skeptoid.com is wonderful!

Brian Dunning's weekly podcasts encouraging critical analysis of fads, fallacies and scams in pop culture are brilliant listening, and free. I sent in a few bucks and within a few days by air mail received a DVD with his documentary film, Here Be Dragons, (which may be watched free here at YouTube), plus 139 amusing and informative podcasts. They've kept me entertained all weekend.

So now Wilson's Almanac is a firm supporter of Skeptoid, as a graphic link in the sidebar of hundreds of our pages will henceforth show. I recommend you visit Skeptoid and get your DVD too.

Dr Dunning, by the way, received his PhD from Thunderwood College, where last night in a matter of seconds I became a PhD in Science, majoring in Feng Shui. You, too can get a degree as easy as pie, at no expense.
