The other thing that bugs me about Google search is that is isn't - as far as I know - possible to *exclude* a whole phrase. You can only put the minus sign on a single word... submitting -"Joe Bloggs" only excludes "Joe", and includes "Bloggs".
Submitting -Joe -Bloggs excludes "Bloggs Joe" as well as "Joe Bloggs".
O.K., so I can understand you're a bit peeved at the moment, but surely after a day or three, when all the hits have died down, then you end up with a lot more people knowing about what sounds like an excellent site. I myself, as a professional software engineer, can't wait to get to see it. Or would you rather the site was just a secret to a cliquey elite? At any rate he's certainly scored points for his innovative solution to being slashdotted!
Having said that, your point about website owners being asked in advance is an interesting one...

Exactly...as I said above (post #128), she should leave NOW, sail off into the sunset with Mulder and child, and leave the two new peeps to get on with it...
Thing is, what with the happy ending to the eighth series, I think Anderson should bow out as well as Duchovny, leaving Doggett and Reyes (the new girl) to start afresh - as you suggest.
What's Scully gonna do in the next series (her last)? Hang around the X-Files office like a spare part with her much-wanted sprog in childcare? Naaaaah, she should sail off into the sunset with Mulder and they should live happily ever after...

What does "Schutzstaffel" actually mean? The fish translates it as "Protection Relay"!!
I know *I* would.
