---- Yahoo and Bing SERPs are IDENTICAL!? How Can That Be?

I remember when I discovered this by accident (investigating Metacrawler, I think), and didn't mention it because I assumed it was something everyone else already knew. Oops. I call them Yahoo/Bing to distinguish from g###.

Can anyone hazard a guess why both robots (bingbot and Yahoo! Slurp from separate IPs) are still working in tandem, when they're both feeding into the same results?
