This link always appears in Google search results (in English)

I searched for probably a rather obscure, very long search term (in English) on Google, and for some reason this "website" came up and it contains nothing at all relevant, seemingly all garbage:

http://web.mit.edu/adamrose/Public/googlelist

Apparently it's a text file of tons of (English) keywords and only keywords, such that its file size is close to 60 Megabytes already. No wonder. So whenever you search for something on Google, (and until the website owner decides to delete it,) this link will probably crop up in the results list, usually near the end since it doesn't contain actual comprehensible phrases. It's all just words.

Actually I have had this idea before, but I never got around to making it. Now, if only there's a way to monetize that page...

WARNING: Loading a 60 Megabyte webpage takes time and will demand a lot of your computer's resources!
