It's a bit Orwellian to start keeping a log of peoples opinions on everything and anything so that we can judge whether they're worthwhile people or not.
I know - it's very dull of people.
For example, the concept of my grandfather being present when his wife gave birth was as alien then as me not being there is today.
People who can't imagine a time when things were different simply lack imagination.
