Raide your hand if you care?!? Let me guess..your one of those people who think that being homosexual is "no big deal"? Like none of us should care? Well.. you go right ahead with your moral adriftness and we'll go right on ahead with "discerning right from wrong".

Metacrawler and my preference, Dogpile, are owned by Infospace. Looks like they're heavier Rat donors than Pubbies, but seems better than Google by a country mile. Yahoo is as bad as google. Lycos, Altavista and Excite are about as bad (Excite is an Ask Jeeves Company, and they're leftist as hell, and Lycos is owned by Carnegie-Mellon University, which I figured as a non-profit and thought about--except its money goes to paychecks for leftist profs).

I think I'll stick with Dogpile, unless someone comes up with a better option.

This article was about donations by Google employees, not by the corporation itself.

Here's my understanding of doing that process directly:

Copy it to your desktop and CTRL-C it.
Go to the Firefox installation directory [in winXP under C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox]
Open the searchplugins folder
Paste the .src file.

Dunno if that will work, seems like it oughta if you're having trouble. I'm not a Firefox authority, though. I will be using IE until I feel safe enough migrating to FF (and until I can get my stupid site admin up here to permit me to do it! #$@$@%@#@#@$#!).

"Check out www.metacrawler.com. It's at least as good."

" Not quite. Once one knows the ins & outs of Google.com, one will hardly want to turn away. You would be hard pressed to find a search engine that can even come close to rivaling Google."

Not that I don't make silly statements here on FR, but that quote is not mine. ;)

Nevermind the fact it was the Democrats that lost the election. No amount of money will ever buy the White House.

Google is a good search engine but not for news.

Its news searches have been, from my general impression, significantly skewed through distinct reliance on liberal news-medium sources and selection of (breaking) news stories that are themselves favorable to liberal/Democratic sectors.

Then there is the obverse - a tendency to omit (breaking) news stories unfavorable to the latter.

stop using it and get all your family and friends to stop using it. If enough of us do it, then there "hits" will go down.

Good observations, IMO. For the time being I'll plan to continue using Google for most searches, but certainly won't use them as a current news source.

All the dentists I know, save one, voted for GWB. I wouldn't knowingly associate with any who voted for John F'n sKerry...

You're down there in God's country. I'm just outside Philly and all the dentists I know are Ivy League professors :-(
