If you put your name and email in something that's linked on a site that Google indexes, it's hardly surprising that it shows up in searches, especially when it's at the beginning of the document.
Moving that info to the end of the ReadMe ought to stop it showing up in the summary.

It wasn't Google. It was Cuil that showed it and gave a download link for the readme.  And we have regulations to follow concerning readmes. Far I know, the name is supposed to be at the top along with the name of the product. I've never been told different.
