As I continue to research this today, I grow more and more amazed at the lack of public data sets. There are what? A million different websites that keep some kind of list of something? And I'm finding only a dozen or two databases publicly accessible? It's crazy. Everybody either wants to charge or actively wants to prevent you from getting their data -- even when the data is common knowledge, was gathered at public expense, etc.
Anybody from Google on? There has to be some shortcuts here somewhere.
