"Like water, this rising tide of data can be viewed as an abundant, vital and necessary resource. With enough preparation, we should be able to tap into that reservoir - and ride the wave - by utilizing new ways to channel raw data into meaningful information. That information, in turn, can then become the knowledge” (Les Alberthal [alb95])
