Re: Google Blocked??

For the first four+ decades of my life, Google didn't even exist. Using it wasn't even an option. Somehow, we survived.*

This is an excellent opportunity to explore other ways to research information, find new resources, and investigate alternative media. Use the opportunity to understand the "pre-Google seach mechanisms," (check out the library - it is full of these strange things called "books"! ) which will make you all the more appreciative of what a wonderful application Google really has become.

Then when you are done, we can talk to you why you should learn to use an abacus, a quill pen, and a sliderule...

*and I managed to get through this whole thing without saying that we used to walk barefoot through five feet of snow to get to school, uphill both ways, with just barbed wire for mittens, and we liked it!
