[Foundation-l] Questions about new Fellow

[Wjhonson]

You are mistaking the problem.
It's not that a piece of knowledge is not googleable.
It's that a piece of knowledge is not published whatsoever.

Never published.  Anywhere.  At any time.  Ever.
That's quite a different animal.

started thousands of years even before that. As somebody already said

Every knowledge is NOT on the internet and Google searchable :)



Sorry, No pun intended.
