I never "specifically" called anything a "real" definition... In reply to:
Knowing the real definition of the word, I find it dismaying...
Hmmmm...
I happen to use bias in a much lighter sense, as in predisposition or preference, like it is used in science. E.g., To remove the influence of brand bias from a listening test, it is a good idea to hide the equipment from the listener. While it is fun to debate semantics, it really is besides the point. Language is only as effective a communication tool as its user. Our definitions don't mesh exactly, and that's fine.
I would not spend time exchanging posts with you, craig, if it were not both educational and enjoyable.

Peter - For your lighter definition, To really eliminate bias, We need to go to the strip clubs in Niagara Falls, Canada.

If a plane ticket magically appeared in my mailbox, I would be unable to refuse. All in the name of science.

Come to think of it, I think being blindfolded requires a surcharge ...

Are you a negative cutter? I used to be a projectionist at the local theatre for about 4 years, we used Cinemeccanica Vic -5's. I used to really enjoy making up film, but I hated breaking it down, that really sucked!
