Recently (in the last few years) I've found that META descriptions tend
to get ignored, with quite a few search engine's it is what you entered
as a site description when you submitted the site that gets displayed.
This is apparently because META tags have been heavily abused by the
adult content market which tended to copy dictionaries into both the
keywords and the decription attributes. Some search engines still trust
META tags, but you often need to read the fine print on their websites
to find out. Sorry this is probably a little off topic and doesn't
really solve your problem.
