Yep, looks like it. That’s a problem with Google—if you search for Robin’s very slightly variant, you only turn up Robin; but google without quotes, and you’re lightyears away from any useful link.
Now that is very strange, if my Yahoo search is any indication.
(For the record: when I searched on Yahoo, it gave me “Quantum Explanations” as the very first hit. This may be a case of context-dependent searching, as I had immediately prior searched with the quotes.)
Those results are way better than Google’s. You’re right about the interestingness—Yahoo and Altavista are infinitely superior in searching for non-quoted quotes. I’ll have to remember that in the future and not assume Google is always better.
A similar quote appears in Quantum Explanations—I imagine that’s who Robin Brandt quoted.

Edit: Fascinating! Look at Altavista!
