Understood and I get the worry that this causes people.

But just some food for thought, I have heard from a grapevine this is 
how a company that starts with 'g' and ends with 'oogle' does quota on 
there resources. A service (I don't know the name) manages the quotas 
and other services can subscribe to that other services events (to say 
sync themselves with that service).

But this is just the grapevine, so the information may be a little 
distorted and/or not correct, ha...
