I prefer DOGPILE.COM
though I think they include Google in their batch.
Hideous, and unAmerican for Google to do such traitorous things.
And they do it smiling all the way to the bank. Hideous.

Moreover.

HURT. Google.

DUH.

Science, albeit in the service of politics and religion, has been the handmaiden of death and destruction from the start.
From the primitive scientist who first attached a sharpened stone (obsidian) to the end of a shaft to create a thrusting or throwing weapon, through the Greeks and Romans with their formidable machines of war, right up to the modern weapons in use today, science has aided and abetted the practice of war.
Just did a search on "The People's cube" and it came up as a listed site.
We need to come up with an alternative to Google...
we can call it "FRoogle" ;)

Eliminate politics and religion and what remains? Eliminate science and business and people perish or revert back to the stone age. Science and business have, much to their own detriment, served political-agenda law an religious-agenda rule. Technology, like guns, doesn't harm people, people harm people.
It is people, got that, people, in politics and religion that chose to use technology to cause death and destruction.
One. More. Time. Free. Republic. Has. More. Pull. In. Conservative. Circles.
My prediction is that Google as a business, will outlive FreeRepublic as a non business.
The vast majority of people aren't into politics, much less conservatism -- a subset of politics -- they spend little time thinking or discussing either. Barley 50% vote in the Presidential election, once every four years. Even less vote in mid-term elections every two years. The rest of the time they could careless. Though the vast majority of people do want government to protect them from terrorists and violent criminals. The vast majority of people prosper due to science and business and even more so when they spend their time pursuing those instead of politics and religion.
Voting for the lesser of evils still begets evil.
Nothing. Perhaps you don't understand the Greek word politiea.
For some reason, every time I use Clusty to find a business source, all the top hits are located in the UK. Are they a British company?
Politics and religion have caused, by far, the most death and destruction. Business and science have created the most values and easily the least bloodshed.
A war of two worlds. Value destroyers versus value producers.
When I type in "freerepublic.com" Goggle takes me directly to the "Latest Posts" page.
Using IE on Windoze98.
You sure you're not typing it in the URL address box, not in the google search box?
Don't know.
Golly gee, Mr Malusa, I ve been doing this for 16 years now, maybe I'll learn this darn stuff someday.
Business, science, politics, and religion are all civilizational tools. A tool is neither good nor bad. It only 'is'. They're all a means to an end. Nothing more. Slavery was 'just business'. Dr Mengele was a scientist. One who employs a tool, and considers not the ends to which it is being employed is an idiot (at best), and toils towards another's goals whether he intends to or not. Business and science have every bit as much power to destroy, and no more power to build than politics and religion.
DOH!
Well, I've been doing it for 25. Typing in an incomplete URL and going NOT to a search results page but to the actual URL, sounds like your typing it in the Address bar. The behavior is identical.
The Firefox toolbar behaves as if you search from the main Google page. The Google toolbar must get search results from somewhere else or they are cached differently.
Google has already come up with froogle - it's their shopping search engine... Clever though.
Business, science, politics, and religion are all civilizational tools.
Death and destruction are anticivilization. Political and religious leaders have created and perpetuated this anticivilization. They cannot cure human death. Science and business can. That is the opposite of anticivilization. It is civilization.
In just the last hundred years science and business have greatly extended human longevity. If not for politics and religion longevity would have increased further. I've never seen DuPont or similar companies wielding death and destruction. History shows death and destruction is the realm of politics and religion.
Natural death is a function of nature. Conscious man is the only entity that can interdict nature and manipulate it to benefit himself, family and humanity. Man has come a long way from inventing the wheel and starting fires. And those two he accomplished before he was conscious -- when he was bicameral man.
Slavery was 'just business'.
It's wrong and it has long ago been eliminated, for the most part anyhow.
Dr Mengele was a scientist.
Employed by politics of the day in Germany.
One who employs a tool, and considers not the ends to which it is being employed is an idiot (at best), and toils towards another's goals whether he intends to or not.
Politics and religion employee tools to cause death and destruction. They sometimes employee scientists to create weapons of mass destruction. Yet there is no XYZ scientific-company that bombs people or airline that flies planes into buildings.
Business and science have every bit as much power to destroy, and no more power to build than politics and religion.
Business and science have the power to destroy but only when their products of science and business are enlisted by government and religion do their tools destroy. Death and destruction at the behest of politics and religion.
A war of two worlds. Value destroyers versus value producers.
