Do you understand the Diff between a search engine and "Public Record"? "knowledge is power, and search engines are the map". Hey kid, there's a whole world out there that's not your google. Libraries have books, City Hall has public records. How about get off your butt and learn how real research is done. Hint: it's not on facebook, google, or twitter.

Rather a lot of journalists and writers (and an increasing number of academics) would disagree with you...

Not to mention doctors. It's not that real research can't be done in libraries or magazines, or even that google is better, it's just that different tools are suited to different tasks, and some of those tools are google.
