I always “dig” a dozen pages or more when searching - and I never rely on just one SE, such as Google. I understand the game, so I do what I am able to get the info I am looking for.

However, I do have a more dependable, less vulnerable source for acquiring accurate information: BOOKS - hundreds of them, on numerous subjects from astrophysics to constitutional law, which I have accumulated over my lifetime. I still go to libraries, including legal research libraries (I was a legal studies major, in tort and constitutional law, for a few years)

Yes, that is how it should be done.

For those who are *too busy*, just do it incrementally, over time.

I’m at the down-sizing stage of life, so many books, out-of-date encyclopedias, et al, have been gotten rid of. However, these old paper relics were usually digitized and the information still exists, just like old maps and geopolitical boundaries that have since changed.

You know, we used to find keywords by reading the source material. Now, we do it the other way around.
