== You say Data, I say Datum ==
I replaced the pluralization of data in the intro paragraph because data is still considered officially to be a plural noun. I do appreciate though that it is creeping into common usage to treat it as a singular collective noun. i believe in the end that may even win over but it is currnetly incorrect to tlak about "Data is". It should be "Data are". See [[Data]]. [[User:AJackl|Alex Jackl]] 15:41, 25 March 2007 (UTC)
