    So look here

    www.itoataxicab.com
    Code (markup):
    This theme was custom made for me. I intalled the platinum seo plugin and somehow in this theme that does not overide the title in the pages (meaning what Mozzile or Internet explorer says the name of the page is).

    So it must be that I have to edit the theme right? Thus far I have edited the title in the Wordpress theme editor in the Header,the main index template,the pager template and in one called pag.php

    Still the old title shows!!!!!!!! Grrr.. I even looked at each page under pages and there is nothing there to edit. Nothing in the stylesheet either.

    Can anyone else think of a place to look to edit this?

    Well your title is hard coded. Try editing the header template and replace the title tags with this from the Twenty Ten theme:

    
    <title><?php
    	/*
    	 * Print the <title> tag based on what is being viewed.
    	 */
    	global $page, $paged;
    
    	wp_title( '|', true, 'right' );
    
    	// Add the blog name.
    	bloginfo( 'name' );
    
    	// Add the blog description for the home/front page.
    	$site_description = get_bloginfo( 'description', 'display' );
    	if ( $site_description && ( is_home() || is_front_page() ) )
    		echo " | $site_description";
    
    	// Add a page number if necessary:
    	if ( $paged >= 2 || $page >= 2 )
    		echo ' | ' . sprintf( __( 'Page %s', 'twentyten' ), max( $paged, $page ) );
    
    	?></title>
