Oddly, that shouldn't be a marker for usefulness.
Quote:Bidwell and Holbrook Hadrian's Wall Bridges 1989 has a Google index of about 7, it's slightly higher if you use only the ISBN. To put this into perspective Roman Bridges by O' Connor has a Google index of 62000.
Again, why is that a marker for validity or usefulness? Some of the results I've seen from searches don't give the most relevant (to the searcher) results at the top, they often give the easiest ones in terms of search matches, which says more about the way people frame search terms than anything.
Here, see this? It's a result for the search term 'roman bridges'. http://lmgtfy.com/?q=roman+bridges How deep do you have to go to achieve results that actually give you the information you want? Google rankings are only an indication of the searcher's needs. Most of them head to Wikipedia, or print out something quick and easy for their school report. It's like using Asterix as documentation for research on the Gauls under Rome.

You're shot, not your, unless it's something of his that has been shot. If so, can you give details so we can all enjoy it?
