Nitai,
I'm not a programmer but have some early experience using Fortran and Basic for research work. In those day, one had to use If-Then-Else statements and a lot of somewhat archaic but quaint search parameters that although primitive, sorted out and/or controlled many variables. I believe that now, I still use some of those techniques and have thus had success.
In the case of this BB, the search regimen may be rooted in earlier techniques. Perhaps the newer search engines have taken searching ability to newer, more sophisticated levels.
Maybe someone that has more IT experience can add to my musings above.
