    after I type the secret word, it goes through.
    The search I was performing when I took that screen shot was [ Prius EV Button ].

    Okay, just searched again and got through with no warning.

    I don't get that warning when I type in "Prius EV Button". I admit, that's odd that you did, though. Perhaps if you search using Boolean then you won't get the message. That is, type in [ "Prius" and "EV" and "Button" ]. Perhaps you search a lot more than most and it's the frequency <shrug> You could always contact Google and ask them why their system thinks that you're a bot. You may have inadvertently uncovered a bug in their software.

    I've never gotten a message like that on Google. But then, I've never searched for "Prius EV button" on Google. And I don't have a card with a sheep on it. However, I am back from my latest trip. No pictures, though. It wasn't really a picture kind of place. All very pretty, but nothing special. And nobody here would want to look at pictures of my 91-year-old mother, my 63-year-old sister, or my 60-year-old cousin, all of whom were pretty hot in their day.

    I still think you would find current pictures of my mother, my sister, and my cousin uninteresting.

    Ok, I'll take your word for it. It's probably best not to mention to them the weird obsession some PriusChat members have for barnyard animals
