Answers.com Competing with Dictionary.com for Google Definitions?

Gary Price at SearchEngineWatch reports that Answers.com is providing at least some definitions from the Google search results pages, in conflict with Google's long-standing affiliation with Dictionary.com. Answers.com is the latest evolution of Gurunet (I was the national media spokesman for Gurunet during a portion of 2004), an answer engine that provides word definitions and other reference support. Gurunet recently switched from a subscription model to a B2B and ad-supported consumer interface. I have not been able to generate a Google results page that uses Answers.com.
