As everyone knows our search index stinks so I am updating it again to see if it gets any better. Please do NOT use the search engine until I post you can do so in this thread.

Hmm - Steven asked us NOT to do something for a while, now what the heck was it ???

Sorry, it is being redone. My windows did one of those wonderful updates a little bit ago and instead of "postponing" the restart by clicking restart later, I clicked restart now.

Sorry everyone.

Works very well so far....I've even thrown a couple of off-the-wall words at it (that I've certainly see on here ;) ) and it found them

Great job!
