There was a time when I would simply google the numbers on a pill found in a pill box travel case to determine what it was so I could sort it back where it belongs.

"123 pill"

And the first response google gave I'd cheerfully take. I almost did it again now. But then I stopped.

Because knowing if the pill is my thyroid medicine, or antihistamine... uh. That maters.

I could sit there dying of an allergic reaction by the side of the road.

It really sucks that search can't be trusted.
