Also a list of fallacies is really not very helpful in improving people's thinking and understanding because it doesn't serve to make a person more rational it just gives them ammunition for Fully General Counterarguments So I Don't Have To Read What You Said (tm)

Same goes for a list of biases.

You should probably just list the sequences page from lesswrong because they give better context and understanding of these issues: http://wiki.lesswrong.com/wiki/Sequences
A list of fallacies is good. It is always nice to reply to a post by noticing that the person before you has used a logical fallacy and then posting a link to this thread.
