Let's play where's that post


Anyone know of the post by The Wizard is In , mentioning the German long range Paris gun of the first world war.
I can't seem to find it , I even searched for my posted comment and can't find that either.


Feel free to drop me a U2U message

I think he's alluded to the fact that the FSE doesn't work very well. I tried searching for recent oxalic acid posts including mine and no joy.

The main problem with TFSE is that it treats search queries as fragments of words. I tried searching for "ISON" the comet, and words such as "comparison" and "Edison" come up instead.



At the end of the day, simulating atoms doesn't beat working with the real things...

Since a long time its known, and even was propagated by Poleverone, that searching SCM is best done by Google using the "xxxxx site:sciencemadness.org/whisper" query and all other functions Google so happily provides.

It works actually really very well.
Albeit I admit to go there and do so also only after the search here has failed completely or annoyed the hell outa me.

But never forget: Dont be evil!

Is there a wiki or sticky on the use of google searches at non-google sites??

Not exactly, but on the help pages of Googles "advanced search" you can make an appointment with Googles escort service (free) and pick the person to cometo you to "escort" you through solving your problems (besides the usual commodities offered).

Maybe thats an option for you?

Uhmmm.. that calls for a lot of confidence in Google ( an American super corp, staffed in LA, Singapore and Bombay). I s'pose I could create a low risk example....
