Note I do not support Tellenbach's opinion but bias in the scientist can affect what they look for and thus slant their research even if their scientific method afterwards is to standard.You can have bias in the scientist as long as it isn't in the science. Bitching about greenies or whatever gets nowhere and produces more inaccurate and inferior results. Because we're wanting so hard for the data to say what we want. That shouldn't be how it works.
Personally I would love to thin of scientists as paragons of balance but my faith in my fellow human isn't strong enough. I find few professionals who are exemplary and far too much evidence for the Peter principle.
