>>I would bet 45-50 percent of the content on SI is cut and paste news articles of little value, 15 percent ranting / arguments between members, of little value. You forgot the 35% that are grub attempts. Let's see, 50 plus 35..... plus 15.... that's ten, carry the 1, ten again, carry the 1..... hell, might as well just toss the whole site!

cut and paste news articles of little value, The day they are posted, yes, they are of little value, because they are usually available elsewhere. But as they get older, they do become more useful, as they tend to get deleted from their original location. Having news and press releases preserved in SI amber as they appeared at the time can be very interesting and/or amusing when viewed months or years later. Being able to use a reliable search engine against them would be really cool. But the grubs should all be purged, no question!
