What took you so long to post this?

Busy formulating my complaint in a fashion that wouldn't result in a knock on the door from the Polis for breaching the Threatening Behavior (Insertion of Objects) Act 1873.
Oh, I also had to complain about their complaint form:http://www.sunderland.gov.uk/index.aspx?articleid=5925[^]. It doesn't work in Chrome, only accepts Sunderland Postcodes (AFAICT - didn't work with mine, my parents or the one for the uni I used to go to - All either Newcastle or Durham postcodes). When you do supply an postcode it is happy with (I used the work one) it overwrites the details with values retrieved when the postcode is checked. Without the opportunity to edit further.
Oh and your not allowed to complain, only "Compliment" or "Feedback".

Well yeah. But there's probably not much point holding a traffic census on a Sunday afternoon 5 miles out of town if you want to know what demands are being made on central carriageways, now is there? It's a bit damned if you do, damned if you don't!

But doing it while creating additional traffic doesn't help either, the measure is still conditioned!

FTFY. We've number plate readers everywhere in the UK, plus what was asked was well within the bounds of statistical analysis of traffic patterns.

As much as I generally loathe them; this sounds like one of the few legitimate uses for license plate readers. Capture everyone driving through one day, and then mail them all a survey.
In the mean time, if it's prepaid, I suggest taping your card to a cinderblock before mailing it back to properly express your opinion of the clusterelephant.
Edit 2: If it's not prepaid, you can do the same but will have to deliver it in person. Might be better to use a brick though to make it easier to do quickly.
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

Saddened by the death of the great Yogi Berra, I fell into a listless sleep.
I dreamed I spoke with Yogi, and asked about the future.
"Things will stay pretty much the same unless they change," he told me.
When I woke up, I remembered one of Yogi's most famous quotes: "it's deja vu all over again."
R.I.P. Yogi

Edit: I did it. Almost 15 minutes without a response yet...
The language is JavaScript. that of Mordor, which I will not utter here
This is Javascript. If you put big wheels and a racing stripe on a golf cart, it's still a f***ing golf cart.

That's probably because we have no idea what 'this' is! Is there supposed to be a link there?

Indeed. Happy Birthday XKCD!
The amazing bit is that he can still come up with 3 good ideas a week after all this time...

But does he? He averages three good ideas a week, but who's to say it's not an inspiration fest for a few days then dry for the rest of the month? We'll never know until he tells us!

Doesn't matter - to keep up that level of inspiration for ten years is seriously impressive!

Well IMHO not all the strips have the same quality, and I think that on average the quality rose at first and declined.
