My first google memory was in 1999 (early 2000, maybe). I was in high school chemistry and we wanted to search for something (probably unrelated to chemistry). I suggested google and then spent 5 minutes convincing the entire class that

I'm torn on this one and would really like to see a "Here's what we know story" because the coverage seems to overstate what is happening. My thoughts, below. Please comment. 1. I assumed (and, honestly, thought it wa
