In his defense, he _did_ say he was trying to learn how to search for
things...

In google, if you put:

site:gerry.vanagon.com

in front of your search, it will search that site (this (the "site:
gerry.vanagon.com" trick) has been covered here before, but to know that you
would have to look in the archives...).

Note that in this case it might not help, for very recent things sometimes
Google hasn't indexed it yet.

ps the thread the OP was looking for is
http://gerry.vanagon.com/cgi-bin/wa.exe?A2=ind1001E&L=vanagon&D=0&P=6742

Also fwiw I am in no way dissing vanagon.com's search--it is, after all, how
I found that link.
