You're very welcome. Everyone needs to become acquainted with search
engines - especially with the "advanced features". My favorite is
AltaVista - a very straightforward, not especially friendly, but very
extensive and powerful tool when you use the advanced search capabilities. I
find many of the others much friendlier - but it's harder to retrieve just a
few entries. Then again, I'm currently employed to optimize SQL search
strategies on a parallel computing system, so pruning searches just seems to
come naturally :^)
