Microsoft to take over Google ?

[mikeymike]

I am really surprised that Bill hasn't taken over the Utilities of the US yet.??

Well, US.gov doesn't seem to that bothered about MS.

Maybe it'll be a bit like the Monty Python Dave and Dynsdale sketch, with the police chief saying "then they nuked Cheltenham, and we began to sit up and take notice".

The worst part is, google have been hoarding everyone's searches for a decade.

A decade?  Four years at the very most.  Most people used Altavista, Yahoo et al up till that time.
