"The CPA's knowledge is used to create information from disorganized
data. The accountant organizes, classifies, and presents data so that investors,
creditors, and others can make decisions based on that information. The Internet
contains little 'knowledge,' but much data, and that data can be an important
input to meeting client needs."
(Lynford E. Graham and Clinton F. White, The Internet as a Practical Tool,
The CPA Journal, November 1995)
