* In the Search Box

I've been here since 2000 and have always wondered why there is an asterisk in the Search box. I always delete it before I type in my search. Why is it there? Should I be leaving it there when I do my search?

It’s the NSA spy camera. Definitely delete it whenever you see it.

Don't mention the asterisk. Everyone will want one.

Blame me as well... I always delete the mysterious asterisk, too. ;-)
