The message <dt1d0u$eha$1@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
from "Cerumen" <doe_c@xxxxxxxxxxx> contains these words:

We seem to have been over run with them?

So have BMW - but all eventually pointed to the same page, it appears.

(BMW-De gets delisted by Google for manipulating search engine listings)

http://images.google.cn/images?q=tiananmen+square

compare and contrast.

Google are happy enough to manipulate if it suits them - AIUI, they weren't

commercial gain (I assume) but not for BMW to play a similar game.

teehee:

there doesn't seem to be a google.tw, oddly.
