This round about discussion, well I worked at IBM four doors from the
Google Search engine inventor.  He made it open source and ask.com and
Google.com came about.

Google is based on an smart engine; ' "The red fox in New Mexico please no
traps or hides" '.
Yahoo is based on the original UNIX engine; ' Fox ' or  '"New Mexico" +"Red
Fox" - trap* -hide* '.

As long as we use different engines we will always get different answers
and ratings.  Those two engines evaluate those terms in very different
ways.  Even a single word gets twisted.

Yahoo does not care about "wanted" any different than "want."  Google knows
you are referring to the past when you use "wanted."
