Gnomic Utterances. These are traditional, and are set at the head of each section of the Guidebook. The reason for them is lost in the mists of History. They are culled by the Management from a mighty collection of wise sayings probably compiled by a SAGE—probably called Ka’a Orto’o—some centuries before the Tour begins.

The Deaf community, on the whole, contain many early adopters of handheld devices, for example. Many people with severe mobility impairments have more professional and social interaction because of the Internet than would have been feasible without it, and are accordingly more proficient with it then many TABs.
