Is there a way to see how popular a particular searches on the internet is? Yesterday, Paul Harvey mentioned that internet searches on "Osama bin Laden" currently outnumber searches on "sex". I would like to know how popular is the search for "Osama bin Laden" _and_ "sex".

That's the bad thing about having an uncommon name like "Osama bin Laden". If his name were John Smith, it would be almost impossible to find him on the internet. Maybe we will get him after all.
