Help with oil thread.

[Jim Nickerson]

Sorry to put this in "news", but does anyone remember a older thread that was commented on this weekend titled something like "where does oil come from?" I think I remember FRED made a comment to someone else's, but searching "FRED" or even "oil" in the thread title returns nothing. Something seems screwy in that regard.

Thanks if you know the answer.

Thank you, Spartacus, that was quick and easy enough. Glad I asked.

I remain convinced that the iTulip search engine ignores all words of three or few letters.

If the back end is MySql, perhaps the board Admins might consider this:

This would depend on whether or not iTulip's web host, apparently (gs) Grid-Service, was willing to make this change to their MySQL SmartPool backend. If I were them, I would likely be reluctant to do that, for concern it would increase the load on my backend. High performance full text search engines that can efficiently handle even very short text don't use SQL.
