Bioinformatician's nightmare!
Different builds, different versions, different formats and there is no consistency. Oh! actually there is consistency...Data accumulation is getting faster and faster

This was an interesting comment that I heard "in the old days there was a biology behind the experiments".
Actually, I do not agree with that argument. Contrary there is a huge biology behind of the experiments. It is almost out bursting...
