My dad told me something interesting today, in the 70s, security forces in the UK used a milk bottle metric to predict riots - a dip in returns of empty milk bottles in certain places meant there was going to be serious trouble in the next two-three days.

This is a perfect example of a lead metric. A drop in empty milk bottle returns, leads to a riot in 2-3 days.
