Damn, I have no luck with DU "search"

[TomInTib]

I am looking for a post of mine titled "Driving Across America".

I have misplaced part of my songbook and I just do not want to believe that I have lost this thing forever.

6. Damn, you guys are the best!

I met with musette_sf today (and her husband - sorry, guys) and we were talking about this particular aspect of DU.

Ask anything, and you will receive.

Thank you so much, BD12, for you have saved me some bit of heartache.

Songs are like body parts, like souls. You lose 'em and you never get them back.

8. I was only one of many that was willing to help out here.

Great lyrics BTW!

10. I too, have found DU Search less than satisfactory, especiall as compared to regular search-engines.

But I've NEVER been disappointed with the friendly help from my fellow DUers, such as the above response. I LOVE my DU!

7. Thanks, TZ. See my reply to BushDespiser12.

And plug in TwilightZone instead of BD12.

I thank you from the bottom of my ever-lovin' heart.

5. If you have any idea when you posted it, that would help...

You probably already tried that, though...

I always bookmark any thread of mine, or even individual post, if I think I'll want it down the road...

I'd be glad to search for you!

:hi:

Nevermind! It's been found!

11. Here's a tip for anyone having trouble finding stuff on DU...

...if the site search engine doesn't work for you, go to google, and type "site:democraticunderground.com" along with your search terms, like so:

http://www.google.com/search?as_q=site%3Ademocraticunderground.com+%22project+x%22&hl=en&num=10&btnG=Google+Search&as_epq=&as_oq=&as_eq=&lr=&as_ft=i&as_filetype=&as_qdr=all&as_nlo=&as_nhi=&as_occt=any&as_dt=i&as_sitesearch=&as_rights=&safe=off

(EDIT: and this is useful for searching lots of other sites, too.)
