"All to say, very interesting stuff, and reiterates why players like

"Finally, his next sentence is critical in explaining the value of

   "I agree that just slogging it out doing the normal things won't

    strategic acquisitions, roll up some smaller local search
    companies, spin out their stock as a separate tracking stock, and
    then marvel at their multi-billion dollar jewel."
