Dave,
I must be missing something.  Am I supposed to
be "shocked, shocked" (a la Capt. Renault)?  My
late father, who has been dead for 35 years,
told me never to trust anyone who advertises
their goodness.  Not to shop at "Honest John's,"
etc.  Were there folks who believed Google's
slogan?  Are there really people who don't
think that information will be misused?
