14. Nice interfaces, shame about the data.

15. Spamming people...

16. We all end up over capacity.

17. If you build it...

19. And I'd add.. The duty should be: Comprehensive Accurate Accessible Appropriate

20. Sometimes, the numbers matter...

21. But how comprehensive?

22. Knowing when things *may* not take place...

23. But reality sometimes bites...

24. Accessible in schools...

25. And on paper...

26. But how accessible...?

27. People are random...

28. Sometimes, people can travel...

29. Often, people search...
