“as I did search this article before posting.”
If I may ask, how did you search? With google or some such thing? Because I always see people say ‘they searched’ but I search and it comes right up.
I use that “Search” box at the very top of...The Free Republic page, and it never fails when I try to search for something.
I did that with more than one search term, and it failed to turn up the previous item. My luck with FR search has apparently not been as good as yours, as I have had it fail several times.
I wish the default FR search was for titles, not key words. It works much better to search for a word from the title, but you have to change the dropdown to do that.
