Search help

I seem to remember saying "I can't disarm a mugger with iambic pentameter" early on in my tenure here at Lit, but damn if I can find the post. Any tips on using the forum search function?

It may have been deleted in a forum cleanup. That happens every now and again.

Make sure your search parameters are for a long enough time period (the default setting only looks at posts three months old or newer). I ran a search tho for several time frames and didn't find the reference. I only looked for "iambic pentameter" and your user name in the AH.

I've never had any luck with it.

Tried all sorts of combos with 'Any date'. Jammies in the AH, Jammies out of the AH, only words and no Jammies in the AH, different words and Jammies in the AH, words and Jammies all over Lit... and, and, and.... Nothing came up.

Yeah for me either.
But the time limit thing is a good thing to remember. I had never noticed the default setting before.

Thanks, dampy and SJ. I guess for once it's not Lit's crappy search function, the thread's gone.

Pooh. I wanted proof of my occasional cleverness.

Um, your year end awards were most definitely because of your cleverness, sweetie. Besides, you're clever all the time. You don't need an old thread to prove it.
