Google Answers are everywhere these days. Search for something and you are very likely to get an answer box at the top of the search results. Be it weather, featured snippets, knowledge graph information or other schema related data.

But if Google doesn't have the answer, maybe they will tell you they don't know? Well, in one case they did!

@nakulgoyal shared a screen shot of an answer where Google said "No matching events found." The query was [when should I go to French Polynesia].

Google didn't have an answer, so instead of just showing ten blue links to relevant results, which is what I see. Nakul saw a box that said "no matching events found."

Here is a screen shot:
