[Air-l] counting google hits

[Lauren Squires]

Hey now, it seems you didn't utilize the phrase operator 
"__ __" in those Googlefights, thereby biasing the results 
toward anything w/ "internet" in the search terms...Let's 
be fair: qua phrase, "internet research" loses miserably 
(sorry!) to sociology, psychology, "computer science", and 
linguistics...also "internet research" loses by a hair to 
"communucation studies." Just sayin'...
