I removed the sentence which read:

The golden ratio is irrational and, in a sense, the hardest among irrational numbers to approximate by rational numbers. Only rational numbers are harder to approximate by other rational numbers. Thus one may say that of all irrational numbers the golden ratio is the least irrational.

because it doesn't make much sense to me, and what it seems to be saying appears to me to be clearly wrong. Anthony Argyriou 22:14, 15 October 2008 (UTC)

I don't know if it's right or wrong, but it sure doesn't make any sense to *me*! Please don't think that *I* put it in there! Hayford Peirce 22:45, 15 October 2008 (UTC)
