Well, sure, but keep in mind that I'm essentially sympathetic to what
Ed is saying. I think that there is a lot of politically driven junk
science in this area, unskeptically reported by people who like the
political implications, and that a skeptical voice about that is
healthy.
But content is not my job, procedure is.
And of course, as I've said, it would be inappropriate to ban people
without due process, and I tend to suspect that this case if studied
carefully would reveal the healthy debate that gives rise to NPOV
rather than any actual bannable offenses.
