A new possibility

Mark, RussT,

Odd. I googled on "Mitchell" "star" "supermassive" and got a hit on the first page of my hit list. Try once more. If you still can't find it I'll let you in on a secret that might (** might **) be the reason.

Mark,

I had a similar experience some years ago. I was looking for a .wav file of the closing bell sound for the New York Stock Exchange. After several days of not even getting close, I finally found a group of terms that returned less than 2000 hits. But still no obvious matches on the first page, so I thought for a minute and added "nyse" to my list.

This got me down to less than 500 hits, but every one of them was an adult porn site. I'm not sure what stocks have to do with porn, but there you go. BTW, I went to a few of them and searched for the text "nyse". I was never able to find it.

Perhaps the 'net is just horny?

People searching for stock information tend to have a lot of discretionary funds to throw away on porn, so why not set a trap for them? Many of them use keywords to catch children; you'd be surprised how many "Sponge Bob" sites are 100% porn. It's all driven by money, not logic.

The fight against the BB should not be against the ‘singularity’, but against what the BB says the singularity does!!!

The Big Bang says the singularity made the whole universe

Singularities make galaxies, not universes!!!
