Todd,
I never thought to do a search on my own name, but you’re right. I always thought I was doing a good thing by including my state, but it does seem to prevent an archive search.
Now, frankly, I feel a bit arrogant changing my newsgroup name to allow others to look back in the archives for my “words of wisdom”. I’ll have to give it some thought.
FYI: Todd (OH) changes name to Todd_OH - Posted by Todd_OH

FYI:
To make it easier to search for my posts, I have changed my username to “Todd_OH”. Neither “Todd (OH)” nor “Todd OH” return any search results. Could be my own user error… or whatever. I noticed that its easy to find “JT-IN”, so I have followed suit.
I am posting this for the benefit of others who may benefit from this insight in the search mechanism.
