381: data Dec 24, 2015

The word 'data' ought to be in the plural, but that isn't just one of those nitpicky parts of grammar on which pedantic teachers enjoy correcting people. 'Data' is the plural of the Latin word 'datum', which means, "it being given", and so the data are the "things being given".
