Crazy searches

I took a look this evening at the various search terms people used when getting to this blog.  Since there’s a dearth of information with real world data about heat pumps, I’m not surprised that various searches about “heat pumps”, “heat pump cost”, and “heat pump reliability” are high on the list.  I described my frustrations about that last year when I needed to purchase a new heat pump.

I am surprised at one term that showed up this week – twice.  It’s “darwins theory of relativity”.  No, I’m not joking.

I give my opinion on a wide variety of topics here, and I have talked about Darwin in the past.  As in here, and here, and here.  I don’t remember talking about relativity, but I guess it’s possible, since (as I understand it) Einstein’s theory of relativity is the best explanation we currently have regarding how the universe operates.  It contains lots of predictions which have been verified to the limits of our equipment, such as the effect of gravity on light, and I know of no data that contradicts the theory.

I just searched for that term on this blog, and I referenced relativity in the “Why is Darwin still controversial” post.

But come on – “Darwin’s Theory of Relativity?”  Really?  Twice in one week?

From the logs I can’t tell if it was the same person who happened to search for that term twice or two different idiots.  But it happened.  So it must be possible.

Another search term I found strange was “who invented the stupid laws we have”.  Only one hit from that term, but it’s still really strange.  I mean strange as in dumb.  I’m curious to find out who thinks laws are “invented”, and why they would think that way.  Laws are simply the rules we (as a society) decide to use in dealing with each other.  They aren’t invented, they are proposed, debated, perhaps modified, passed, and only then do they become law.

Many of them – like the restrictions on freedom and various illegal searches passed after 9/11 – are later ruled unconstitutional, but none of them are “invented”.  Laws may be “proposed”, “submitted”, “debated”, and “bullshit”, but they are not invented as the term is commonly defined.

Just thought it was weird how people found this site.   I get many more hits from valid searches, but these were really weird and for some reason I felt the need to say so.
