I make Maps from 1's and 0's. I have a Cochlear Implant, so I hear with them too.

There's definitely a series where you both visit craft breweries around the country.
Preferably together, but alternating views would be interesting.

I'm based in Europe, so the concept of a publicly available dataset that contains people's names and a matched location sets off all sorts of alarms.
If I ever see personal names in a dataset it's standard practice to delete immediately and check with the sender.

Address data has to be the type with the most edge cases.
Sometimes it feels that every case is an edge case.

Perhaps we should be glad that Burkean has a new meaning. Or perhaps it's the same meaning, but wearing a duffle coat.

I admire your restraint. I would have had difficulty maintaining decorum while priests were dismissing fairy stories.

I can absolutely believe that. I'm sure most of the topsoil in Stradbally is still contaminated with it.

That reminds me of a popular weekly music newspaper, The New Musical Express (known as the NME to insiders) who would routinely ensure that all band names were printed in bold type.
The objective being that a reader could quickly scan an issue and state 'oh yeah, I've heard of them'

Probably bigger venues with better managed sound than what was available back then.
In the early '90's there was lots of talk in the NME and the likes about them having to replace the amps and strobe lights after each gig, which is almost certainly bullshit, but good for their reputation.

I saw them in a big tent at a festival in '08, so that doesn't really compare. But it was louder than that.
Not as loud as '92, but I don't think that's legal anymore.

Amazing stuff alright. I never thought I'd see them again after the SFX in 92 and at EP in 08 (which itself was unexpected)
