Huh? Was that WP:POINT? The problem is, that our search function sucks. So
we have to make finding things through the "Go" option mindnumbingly easy.
It is not unreasonable to think that someone looking for a very influential
album (I once had a day in class on this album in college) would search for
its name, "Big Science". Why you would remove any reference to the alternate
meaning in the main Big Science article kind of boggles me. Perhaps I've
missed something in the hundred e-mails sent out on this list today.
