I've tired of the perpetual deception and continuing introduction of new methods.

And no robots.txt either? I can't remember if they hit robots the last time around (last spring?). I wish they'd do their trial and error experiments on their own web pages before turning these ideas loose. Why do they do that, anyway? Is it a whim? Or is someone under pressure to get a search engine going? I don't know.
