“We can’t manage what we don’t measure,”

Those immortal words were uttered yesterday by Nick Smith in something to do with water allocation and mandatory metering.

My only thought was how appropriate. Pity the gummint doesn't apply same ethic across the board.

Teachers and National Standards immediately came to mind. Real objective measurement will do that viper's nest of socialists a lot of good.

And then changing drinking laws came to mind. The gummint caving in to emotional wowserism over two drinks vs the actual measured stats on 80 mcg vs 50 mcg.

HT HP for reminding me of it
