A factual news article from today; and the strangely prophetic 1967 lyric from a 'A day in the life' by John Lennon.
"I read the news today oh boy,
Four thousand holes in Blackburn, Lancashire
and though the holes were rather small
They had to count them all,
Now they know how many holes
it takes to fill the Albert Hall"
