ABOUT THE PINOCCHIO FILES 1 Page

The Pinocchio Files© is a web site created, coordinated and maintained by The Somniloquy Institute, P.O. Box 25321, 3001 HH Rotterdam, the Netherlands.

The Pinocchio Files web site presents a free articles database for all who wish to learn more about truth and lies, and learn how to recognize them. We support the Blue Fringe Campaign for free speech. Our goal is to create an entertaining and educational environment which also means a place where we don't tolerate behavior that can be harmful to others.

This chapter provides a framework and basic rules by which we all agree to help support the creation of a free, inviting and vibrant place for popular science and infotainment. So, please read our ideas and if this is something you can live with, we are happy to welcome you to a universe in which the truth is the truth and a lie a lie. If you have questions or suggestions, please send us some feedback.
