i think the color green got a raw deal in that study.... i'm going to google it about a billion times to help out it's stats

I was inspired to do all those searches by a ridiculous news story that compared: iraq, star wars, halo & world of warcraft.
http://www.motherjones.com/mojoblog/arc ... veals.html

The article surmises that everyone cares more about fake war than real war. If I could get World of Warcraft tips from MSNBC I wouldn't google it so much. I guess USA Today should stop blabbing about the war in Iraq and tell me where to find Star Wars collectibles so I won't mess up their search engine data.
