Getmain, I appreciate your clarifications and have found them informative.

However, it is a little odd that Sean's search term produced those three specific images: Luxor, a 747, and Staples Center (I've verified all three to my personal satisfaction).

The only note I'll add is that the whole point of Twexus is to allow people to associate new search terms to any of the 21,000 images in the database. If a word hasn't been used, you can associate it with any image appearing on your monitor.

Honestly, the only question I have (and it leaves me sceptical) is how someone might have deliberately constructed the 3-image sequence and then added the three specific parts of the search term deliberately. None of the images have anything obvious associated with them, e.g., "luxor" doesn't appear as an association with the Luxor image. (You can see the associations by clicking on the image and then "info" underneath)

Anyway, it's odd.

< Indeed. So if jihadis somehow stumbled across Mr Wacker's website, they would have no way of finding, for example, the middle image of the plane, because the only terms associated with it are: [5] hu
[2] 7:30
[1] involved
[2] pissb
[3] t-shirts


I am satisfied with my original take on this: the 3 images got randomly assiged to the 3 words when Mr. Lomax originally submitted the search term on the twexus site.

Cause the site has an embedded association to choose these pics with those words. THAT does not mean these pics won't show up in random order with other word associations; BUT these three pics are embedded to associate with this word combination specifically.

HENCE is why it was cached in google for this specific display.
