Geez guys. This is a no-brainer. If the science and the facts back up your assertions, there shouldn't be ANY NEED to slant things in your favor. By thy own actions be damned.
Statistics, unfortunately, is the most slippery and mercurial of all mathematics. You can make them say whatever you like, as long as no one ever takes a good, hard look at your sources or methodology. *heh*

I saw someone wearing a sweatshirt one day that said: "If in doubt, manipulate the data". Statistics thrown out from the blue without background information or baseline comparison is a sure sign of propaganda.
