Strange, is it not, to have SPOV high on one's list of worries. Of course
you could take it as read that NPOV copes swimmingly with troubles coming
from politics, religion, economic self-interest, ethnicity, cultural
blinkers and bad history. But somehow grinds to a halt when asked to cope
with the verifiable/falsifiable nexus and those insidious claims on
scientific method. When all we have to do is report proportionately on
consensus and minority views, not root out the bad science (which of course
is always with us).
