    Type "french military victories" on Google (with the quotes) and click "I'm Feeling Lucky". I guess this is a continuation (spel?) of the freedom fries, no champagne drinking, etc, and that the Google guys decided to jump on the band wagon... Things people think up hey? (Sorry to French members..) BTW. Doesn't Einstein look good today? :)

              Sad and increadibly dumb - what about school kids and so on trying to do research? Albinoblacksheep didn't think that one through enough - that's like advertising porn sites in your sig on CP, there are certain responsibilities people who use a service must abide to, and etiquettes to follow. :|

                Oh, lighten up! :rolleyes: ---

                My whole life I've practiced the art of self-sabotage -- fearing success perhaps even more than fearing failure. I think I have got this flareup resolved, but I'm constantly waiting to see what new and exciting ways I can spoil my chances for a better life. - koreykruse, Compulsive Skin Picking

                  I like a good anti-French poke as much as anyone (and I dare say by some people's reckoning I'd have more reason to hand them out), but (a) I don't hold individuals responsible for their governments, and (b) I just don't find that at all funny, sorry. That wasn't a joke, it was an act of carefully premeditated vandalism; they tampered with what would easily be upheld as a "public service" in any sub-standard US court of law, which is taking things too far. Fear's a terrible thing in the wrong hands.

                      It seems you have missed entirely what I was referring to - it had nothing to do with the content and everything to do with the repurcussions abs seem to have ignored. Whatever happened to think first act later. :~
