I just spent a very congenial couple of days in Champaign, Illinois, at the Summer Institute for Humanities Data Curation. Here are some memorable sentences ...
Karen Wickett shared a very nice Rule in discussion: "I like to do favors for my future self".
I used this sentence of Geoff Bilder's in my presentation: "For every distributed service created, we've then had to create a centralized service to make it useable again".
And spotted on a coffee shop T-shirt: "we don't do tall".

I think the future favor rule originated with Dorothea Salo.
Dorothea said many interesting things. This was Karen though.
