Since the county began sending a text message the evening before each appointment, the proportion of appointments at its recycling centres that go unkept has fallen from a fifth to a twentieth over eighteen months. The county concludes that the messages are what people are responding to, and wants to use them for its library reservations and its bulky-waste collections as well.

Which one of the following, if true, most strengthens the argument?

AMost people who book an appointment at a recycling centre do so online rather than by telephone.

BThe messages cost the county less than a penny each to send, and the same system could handle the library reservations without further expense.

CAppointments at the recycling centres are free, and a resident who books one and then does not appear forfeits nothing.

DAt three centres the messaging system failed for two months, and at those three the unkept proportion stayed at a fifth throughout.

EThe county extended the centres' opening hours into the evening in the same month it began sending the messages, so a booked slot could be kept after a working day.
