My point is that left to their own internal forces, most companies (and people) would live their lives fat, dumb, and happy. In the business world, competition functions as the external sanity check that forces you to update your approach. It is not by coincidence that monopoly utility companies and government offices are famed for their backwardness in how they operate. Best, -cwk. Colin W. Kingsbury COO / Co-Founder HRMDirect Moises,

I didnt analyze the results as mcuh as I was looking for a way to measure the queries. I will go back and look at the overlap. The point I was going for was that we need to write more precise search strings and if we would have written the query right the first time we wouldn't have seen the first results which would make the overlap a moot point. I do see your logic though, now that is there lets evaluate that too. Great comments. Moises Hi Ravi,
