This is becoming like our vs. thread.
So I'll recycle one.
Tera Patrick or Katja Kassin?
ah, fork posting the results.
Tera wins handily. l like her Asianness. Half Tiawanese, I think.
But KK just seems more versatile. |

Mithridates, I have been a computer programmer since I was 6 years old. I know how a search engine works. The whole point of "googlefight" is that it's a funny way of producing basically random fight results. A wise man doesn't jump to the automatic conclusion that he's smarter than the person he's interacting with.

I think one too many google fights have made you crabby? I say we forget this tiff and work on spreading love around the rest of the board. |

Thought I'd post something very relevant to the Cafe at large:
ESL 19,500,000 vs. EFL 3,140,000
Uh-oh...
TEFL 2,510,000 CELTA 1,840,000
Hmmm....
Hagwon 16,900 vs. Uni 95,400,000
What a surprise. 
Korea 340,000,000 vs. Japan 715,000,000
Korea 340,000,000 vs. China 684,000,000
And now, for the finale! It was a hard-fought battle, but in the end the Good Guys had one man standing at the end:
Communicative Language Teaching 1,590,000 vs. Crap Language Teaching 1,580,000
That is, until we defined our terms a little more clearly:
Communicative Language Teaching 1,590,000 vs. Grammar-based Language Teaching 31,200
With quotes:
Communicative Language Teaching 72,200 vs. Grammar-based Language Teaching *0*
It's a one-punch knockout!
And the crowd goes wild!!!!
