Confirmation bias is huge. I'm glad they're trying to tackle it.
  I think the trend of overconfidence in the magic of Scientific
  Method to automatically correct human bias may be part of the
  problem.

  Psychology has gotten more and more poo-poo'd as an unScience
  through the years.. and some BASIC Psychology such as "yes
  you're Human, Scientist and you _have_ bias" is more freely
  tossed aside, skewing results.
