Well, I didn't mean to search for my name ;)  That is still a funny
result.  I admit I'm glad I'm not in Steve's shoes.  Booth's idea of
searching for "booth martin rpg" is better than mine of just the name only
(unless your name is linus torvalds or something).  "james rich rpg" is a
little better, and "james rich tn5250" is a huge improvement.  So maybe
show your potential employer a guided search where you have previously
picked out the search terms.
