I think the Google thing is relevant. It's no less fine an indicator of sentiment than anything else out there.
maybe, but my point was, you have Grant siting there, one of the best thinkers out there ans you use your limited time to ask him about a google search?

I love how he answers the question by citing a report from bloomberg.
when bloomberg has him on, it for about 1/2 hour and it is a great interview..

is this Carlos?
no not carlos
having huffington and grant is a very unique tandem that news should have more of.
