    Society has varying and conflicting interests; what is called objectivity is the disguise of one of these interests - that of neutrality. But neutrality is a fiction in an unneutral world.

    select SOUNDEX('Vinita') -- V530

    select SOUNDEX('Amita') -- A530

    select SOUNDEX('Ankita') -- A523

    select SOUNDEX('Ramita') --...
