better search criteria

In Response To: would this work? (Chuck Bower)

I did some experimenting with the search menu here. I believe I found the following facts:

1) Character strings are searched, not simply words. So if you search for the character a it will find any word containing that letter.

2) All fields that the poster fills are serached. Thus the name field and the subject field are searched, as well as the body.

Thus if your ("Any of the following following keywords") search string is: a e i o u 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 n

I'm figuring you get everything anyone cares about. There may be ways to bypass this search by using only special characters, but I'm figuring Stick already deleted those kinds of messages shortly after they were posted, if they ever happened.
