That's not what I posted. Look carefully at my origial text. You removed
a space -- an essential one (as all characters are, in programming ;)).
Either you somehow messed up the quoting manually, or your newsclient
(Google apparently), screwed things up. Given that your quoting habit
sucks anyway, my bet is that Google is to blame. I suggest you upgrade
to a real newsclient. Plenty of options: <http://www.newsreaders.com/>.

You're welcome, but your change makes it less reliable. There is no
guarantee that the result will contain the string "google". That string
just happens to be in what Google's servers output today, and only for
certain addresses, and very likely only to certain IP addresses, etc.
What I posted is far more reliable. If it doesn't work, you're running
something else than what I posted. (Every character counts, so be
careful when copy&pasting code -- especially beware of linewraps
introduced by newsclients, newsservers, etc.)
