I wonder if this automated "assimilation" of W|A by Google has been anticipated by the W|A team. Probably they would at least want search queries to come to www.wolframalpha and not www39.wolframalpha... and of course one may debate if Google is sufficiently human to be allowed to use W|A at all, even if it does so indirectly and on my behalf. In the end Google and others like it could end up benefiting greatly from the new content W|A and its users are creating with computable facts. Jens
