Error! Missing argument!

They use real-sounding names with middle names and all (Anne Jessica Goldwin, Martin W. McGregor) and then go and admit that they're just made up names?? I don't get it. And am slightly offended. Makes you wonder what other information provided about the others is inaccurate. Can we trust the locations and job titles given for the authors? And if we can, then couldn't we just google for them and find out their real names after a little searching (assuming we had enough clues to narrow it down to a specific person)?

Keep in mind, however, that the names used by our team are not real. This was considered as a solution to the problem of “you already have a name crafted/coined on the Internet; signing your articles, blogs, references and/or documents about Google would greatly diminish the importance of Weblogoogle, while augmenting your sole web presence”. Therefore, we’ll be using these names, instead of our real ones.
