Pop Quiz What's wrong with the above search string? Besides being an asinine phrase to search for!

Answer "Its not quoted". If you are looking for something like white latex paint without the quotes the search engine will return information on each word in the phrase, that is every article about paint, each web page that has the word white in it, and probably more than you ever wanted to know about latex. If, however, you quote the string, like "white latex paint" the search engine will return only those web pages that have the exact string, "white latex paint" in them.
