Topic: Maybe sourcing is dead, not sure, but we still can have fun searching on the web...: illing to share my answers; however - how about you try to solve this first? "Your friend Bob saw a movie on TV, and a song from the movie got stuck in his head. He would buy the song on iTunes, but the problem is Bob can't remember the name of the song or the movie it was in. He can't remember the names of the actors that were in the movie, he can't even remember what decade it was filmed. Bob can however, remember one word from the song. The word from the song Bob can remember is "the". Bob is also able to hum the song and he knows where the word "the" goes as he hums it. Find the song for Bob only using the word "the" in your search query and one additional word that is not in the lyrics of Bob's song. As with all the test questions, you must produce the query you used and the search engine you ran it on. The musical you are looking for is "The Sound of Music" but you can't use that in your query, you must pretend you have never heard of it. Do not use a lyrics database, you must use a standard search engine like Yahoo or Google. To pass this question, the lyrics to the Sound of Music must appear in the first page of results. For an extra point, find the lyrics only using the word "THE" and NO other word in your query"…; Added by Irina Shamaeva at 6:07pm on March 10, 2009
