Thank God for double blind peer reviews, warts and all.

Do they actually work? I don't have actual experience, but I heard that they are only used by people who might benefit from them and thus the authors are automatically suspicious to the reviewer, plus you almost always cite your previous papers in a pretty obvious way, so it's hardly blind anyway.
