Question: Should there be a DIY Forum?
    
- Yes
- No
- Need to think about it some more

Ideally, you shouldn't be able to see him.  That's where things get
complicated for a home test.  People can give off subtle clues that
this one "should" sound better than the other.  So subtle that they're
not picked up unless you're well-trained and watching for them... or by
the subconscious.

That's why "double-blind" matters... if a doctor knows which patients
are getting placebos he may see improvement that isn't there or
convince the patient they are getting better/worse when they aren't.

The human mind is... weird.
