"Today I decided I would try to change Google."
The best part for me is "try to" rather than the much more common and nonsensical "try and" that I see all the time. I think I would pay for a Chrome extension to automatically replace all occurrences of "try and" with "try to."
It takes a librarian...
Also, thanks for changing Google for the better, and helping those who need help the most!
