Came across the below article recently about how people were putting their time to good use during the last one year plus of COVID-19 lockdowns. And it brought a smile to my face :-) I doff my hat to all those 16,000 plus volunteers who helped transcribe the manual records pertaining to rainfall in U.K. over the past 350 odd years into a digital form. It is through such collective efforts that a society develops. Can't help thinking that this event needs all the publicity that it can get so that others get inspired to contribute to the social good.
