EK, again, THANKS for the actual thread I was looking for.

But the problem with the search is that if I search for "T205 backs", I will get MORE hits (for threads that have "T205" OR "backs") than just searching for "backs" alone. This is counter-intuitive and not how most search engines work. So far, I've not found a way to indicate an "AND" symbol to search for posts/threads containing some/all of the words I put in the search.

Again. Just put this in a google search engine:
site:net54baseball.com "T205 backs"

It will search all of the threads on net54baseball. It is a workaround but it works.

Andy, Thanks for the workaround!

+1, thanks for the Google suggestion.. I've also had issues narrowing down my searches for past threads
