I thought that once, when I did a search for a former conductor of my
choral society named Simon Phipps, and all the hits were about XML and
Java. But it turned out to be a coincidence.

("Simon Phipps conductor" finds him pretty quickly, of course).

I do find that when I use google from an IP address in Germany, I get
far more hits in German.
