Idea: if anyone here has a photo of any celebrity that is not on the
internet currently, we can do an experiment.  What we need is a picture you
took with your own camera any movie or TV personality (because they would
likely have a lot of images on the internet) an elected politician, anyone
involved in a big news story such that their photo from a lot of different
angles would be in the public domain.  Post your own picture which you know
is not on the internet, see if Google can find who it is.  

Google couldn't find one of my approximately dozens of images on the
internet: mine were primarily from gatherings of motorcycle people, who took
pictures and posted them to their Facebook pages and such.  But a typical TV
person could have thousands of images out there.
