		<description>Google still needs to fix some things.  Now with the &quot;ten pack&quot;  the results are visibly goofier  (googlefier) by a factor of 3.3333 for any search for any city and the phrase &lt;i&gt;advertising agencies&lt;/i&gt;.

Reasonable results show for the singular version, &lt;i&gt;advertising agency&lt;/i&gt;.

I don&#039;t know......if I were making some grotesque errors....would I want to get even &lt;b&gt; more exposure&lt;/b&gt;.
