That's a total cheat. For one thing, you're using Yahoo. Yahoo for God's sake? That company still lives and breathes? And secondly, your search term is long to the point of absurdity. How on Earth did you find that worked? Did you track a visitor? You snoop you.

PT, somebody somewhere actually searched on that term and it showed up on Statcounter.

I am surprised that it only gives one hit - artificial scarcity being one of the many ways in which the vested interests protect their own, er, interests, so it's quite an important concept.
