Google could randomly boot out 50% of the index, and John Q wouldn't know, notice, or care. What they care about? John Q is more interested in when Google is going to change the logo, than they are the serps.

What you are saying holds a lot of truth. But on the other hand, who made Google what they are today? Supposedly those same JohnQ's no?

Though people are creatures of habit.

(Like how hard it is for a browser like Mozilla, which is free and at least as good as IE, to get substantial market share.)

Anyway, it's not as if I've completely given up hope for Google or anything like that. (Or maybe I'm also too set in my ways?)
