Oh dang. I did a search for "don knotts" and didn't come up with anything. Couldn't do a search for "dubya" without a million responses.
Oh well. Win some. Lose some.

A search for dubyamovie.com would have found it. Don't be discouraged. It's one of the funniest things I've seen on MeFi this year.

ColdChef do you know why that works on the MetaFilter part but not the Google part of the search?

Shouldn't the site have automatically recognized that the url was a dupe?
Still a funny movie. :)

I've never done a FPP, but doesn't the posting form encourage / help you to search for a *URL*? Seems like a lot of dupes would be stopped that way.

if you leave off the "www" and just search for the domain name, that helps.
Of course, sometimes urls change.
Such is life.
