Just wanted to take a few seconds to make an angry, probably uninformed, rant. I'm part way through reading a Chronicle of Higher Education article about Google Books. In it, Sergey Brin a "co-founder of Google" makes this ridiculous comment," Often when I do a search, what is in a book is miles ahead of what I find on a Web site." Really?! How long did it take you to come to this surprising realization? Anyone this stupid, should not be allowed to be involved with the control of information in books. They shouldn't be allowed to read a book, touch a book, or even say the word, "book" unless accompanied by a non-retarded adult. Anyone out there that thinks it's a good idea for Google to have control of the digital book world, should be confined by the same restrictions! Rant over.
