    I think it’s tongue-in-cheek . . . . . isn’t it?

  2. Robert Wright says:

    No, I don’t think it’s tongue-in-cheek.

    It’s simply a pathetic, content-challenged site.

  3. Jim Stroud says:

    May I ask to what site you are referring to Robert?

    When I write emails in foreign languages, I often Google phrases if I’m not sure what I’m writing is natural. The results generally point me in the right direction.

  5. GoogleMaster says:

    I stopped reading when I got to “asterix”. Of course, since Google probably told him that “asterix” was more popular than “asterisk”, that’s what he decided was correct.

  6. adair says:

    GoogleMaster, 30 seconds of research before you post something like that would help raise the level of this discussion.

    Asterix: 9.470,000 hits
    Asterisk: 18,000,000 hits.

    Anyway, that methodology is not being suggested.
