What the heck is "AC-130"?
Guess I'll have to do a search.

 

[Bill Gato]

Shawn,
The AC-130 Spectre is a heavily armed propellor-driven gunship which uses the C-130 cargo plane as its platform.
The AC-130 is armed with 7.62 mm miniguns, 40mm automatic grenade launchers, sophisticated weapon's control systems, night-vision, and even a 105 mm howitzer, which has been mounted on the rear cargo ramp!
It typically flies in a circular formation with its weapons (which are all mounted on the starboard side of the aircraft) facing the target area and can, theoretically, place a round into every square inch of a football field.
Hope that helps!

I'm surprised the top 10 don't have anything related to porn in them.

What is "Gaining Queries"?
These can't be general searches.

 

[Michael St. Clair]

Gaining in frequency. Porn isn't going to gain. There will be 10 million searches for "Britney's boobies" last week, and there will be 10 million this week.
But if 10,000 people searched for 'Cipro' a month ago, and 1 million searched for 'Cipro' a week later, it is going to be a high gainer.

 

[Camp]

Thanks for the clarification. That makes sense.

 

[Kelley_B]

Smallville is Superman's home town,and the name of the new WB series....

Why can't they just leave Superman alone.

 

[Morgan Jolley]

This should be said in TV Shows, but you're right. They really are screwing Superman up. Plus Lex Luthor isn't supposed to be bald yet.
