I thought if we figured out why/how it worked, we didn't NEED to memorize
things. :)

Why Not!?
Remember the days where we have to memorise multiplication tables from
2xtimes to 12xtimes ...
But now, there is internet, kids don't memorise for assignments anymore,
this is the age where google has been added as a word(verb) into the
dictionary, so, anyone should be given the freedom of information googling!
If the kids do it now, why can't we?
Many Thanks
Yemi Salau

Should your answer then be to look it up on Yahoo or MSN? :)

Reading through all these responses about how ludicrous Google's questions
were, and how any normal person would just look up the topic on line.
If you are a SR network engineer at Google, and you break the network - you
can't use Google to find any information to help you out......
The irony kills.
