Most people don't realize that the more your search on google, the more they're collecting info from you & selling it for free. As such, I've rarely used it for several years now, & go to wikipedia if I just need straight facts and a couple of months ago started using duckduckgo from a recom...

My rash was going away & then last week some new spots appeared! Dag-nabbit :?
