Interesting. I get

40,300,000 for "Jimmy Wales" 
http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&lr=&q=%22Jimmy+Wales%22&btnG=Search

and
42,700,000 for "Jesus Christ"
http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&lr=&q=%22Jesus+Christ%22&btnG=Search

-- mav

PS - IIRC, the same search a month ago had over 50,000,000 hits for "Jimmy Wales" and about
43,000,000 for "Jesus Christ". So you ain’t more popular than Jesus anymore. :)
