    I have found that most people don't use Google for serious research, just to find cat videos, and anything that supports their own agenda.

    The top ten searches for 2014 were,
    Robin Williams
    The World Cup
    Ebola
    Malaysia Airlines
    Flappy Bird
    ALS ice bucket challenge
    ISIS
    Ferguson
    Frozen
    Ukraine

    So I would say half were serious searches, Robin Williams is a celebrity search, and I have no idea what a flappy bird is. And these were all searches including the adult searches. The percent of young person serious searches must be way below 50%.

    So I think my Google search supports what I had to say about Google searches.

    For the most part, I found the official moderator swearing-in ceremony to be totally appropriate and dignified, except for the lecture by Cartman. I didn't even know he was real, much less an admin.

    You mean like……

    A backdoor slider
    A spit ball
    Hitting the foul pole
    A hanging curve
    Squeeze play at home
    Frozen Rope
    Called up from the minors
    Scoring on an error
    Choke-up on the bat
    Disqualified for using vaseline

    Huh, so because the top search last year was robin williams, no one can use Google to research fluid dynamics?

    Thats some infallible logic

    My point was that very few young children and teens do much serious research on the net.

    That was the infamous 4chan who came over to play on our site while theirs was down. That was quite an experience, esp. for a mod, eh?

    Most schools and libraries have major firewalls these days.

    Then add parental controls on devices and you can see why.

    Also everything you ever need to know is on FB, right?

    Is that who it was? I almost thought I'd dreamt that.....seems like 10 years ago.

    By the way, I lost my train of thought somewhere around here so I don't know what I'm going to talk about next....

    I'll have to go back and see where I was going with all this.

    Had to be somewhere.......

    ......Oh...cripes..my foil hat fell offfff.....
