But I resent it when people        suggest that I "google for it" when I need to research a book        title. I have fine industry tools for book searches; I don't        *need* to google it. But sometimes Google is the one I need to        use inorder to get closer to the results that people remember        seeing when they used Google - especially give me the wrong        title or can't spell the author's name correctly. Google seems        to do a good job at guessing what that correct spelling might        be.               JH> Maybe they could shorten it to just "Duck" and then you        JH> can start saying "Let me Duck that"?              Hey.. I like that. Easier than "Let me dee dee gee that".                                   --        ../|ug              --- OpenXP 5.0.50        * Origin: Get MOBILE on your mobile! http://shorturl.at/cfsJ0 (2:221/1.58)       SEEN-BY: 153/757 221/1 6 360 229/426 664 280/464 292/854 423/81 460/58       SEEN-BY: 770/1       PATH: 221/1 6 229/664 426           |
