Robert,
Actually the "search for subject" has mostly worked fine, it may be that
the topic "SS" is the first/only instance that it didn't, and that's
the topic which prompted my suggestion. It found way more topics, anything
with two ss's together, I think, than just "SS".
And even before Chris reminded me, but after I sent the suggestions,
I remembered that this, contrary to its name, is actually a LIST,
not a forum.
