Nope, not the issue. I thought of that. But, these are being created by our
publications staff (who should know better). And, google finds them without
problem.

Searching for "alfalfa" on http://cecommerce.uwex.edu

Google finds 54 hits. Ultraseek: 3. That's just ridiculous.

And, the ones that show up without a description in Ultraseek have a
description in google.

I think my solution is going to be to use the google api to do their search.
