    That's on Google.ca. I wonder what the results would be on Google.com or any of the other Googles.

    In my site meter logs for keywords for the .com extension, primarily the searches revolve around go transit blog, go train sex, and "name of station" plus random question.
    What I linked here were search results that I think, based on what I see in logs, prompt the text messages I receive that are separate from the ones I get from people who intentionally text me.

    The go train lost and found amazes me. Perhaps it's the title of the link? That it says Lost & Found? Still unbelievable that people would be that stupid to not see the first 3 links would help them out.

    All this proves is that people don't read. They skim and their brain is only looking for something that jumps out at them. Pretty wild though. Maybe they even write more specific words that make the page come up higher.

    Thanks CJ! But it still doesn't clarify for me why people would ignore the first several OFFICIAL GO TRANSIT links and pick yours... although I'm so, so glad that they do!

    Well Aitch,
    What can I say? I can't explain the logic. It makes no sense to me but god love them for the stupidity.
