You see, Jill? I tried to tell you Google wasn't cheating. To a person unfamiliar with the different phrasing techniques, Google is nowhere near as useful or productive. It actually takes a little while before you realize all the features Google has available. Like Boolean searches(this AND that/this OR that), synonyms(tilde before search term: ~cat look for 'cat' or any synonyms), exact quotes(enclose search term in double quotes: "this or that" note: the or in this case doesn't mean Boolean it just means 'or' cause the whole phrase is in quotes) and that's just scratching the surface.
