Does anyone remember the date on which Yahoo started using its own search results and ditched Google?

Yahoo dropped Google as the default search technology provider for its U.S.-based sites late Tuesday [17th Feb 2004], signaling the beginning of the end for the Web's most high-profile marriage of convenience.
The change occurred at 9:30 p.m. PST Tuesday when Yahoo relaunched the search properties for its U.S.-based sites, including its Yahoo.com flagship home page.
