I'd just like to point out, for the sake of the record, that not all
the major issues have exactly two sides to them.  Indeed, I would
argue that there are a lot more issues with odd numbers of sides.  One
of the problems with any attempt to ensure "balance" is that they
rarely recognize that reality isn't usually delivered in dichotomies.
And that's my last word on the topic.
