There be spiders amongst us

All day today Google has been cataloging the site here.
Here is an example:

"Google Spider Replying to Thread
funny ebay toyota show truck"

It is funny to see these web bots replying to posts, looking at members profiles, PM'ing members, and doing admin & moderating duties.

They often crawl all over the site, but today has been a very busy day for them here.

Wanna see something?
Take the phrase above that the bot is doing, and Google it.
Put quotation marks around it:
"funny ebay toyota show truck"

That is cool Tom.
Tried it with my name, but there are to many of me

Now take a name that is unique like Adrian's, and it will work.
Let see...

Flygtenstein

It even shows Adrian clear back to the old VMag days.
