I lost and confused...please help.
BTW, a link to search stategies from the main LUGNET page would help out
those of us who don't come by this sort of thing naturally :)

OK, lemme see about putting together some docs.  As ++Lar once mentioned, we
need context-sensitive help here.  If I make some help pages, they can be
linked to from various spots.  Keep your eyes peeled for help links.

  Search Syntax Help Needed
 
I need help searching through articles on LUGNET!! How do I specify that I want to search for an exact phrase? Do I enclose the phrase in quotes or parentheses? Something else? Can I look up articles by specifying a date? If so, how do I do that? (...) (24 years ago, 31-Jan-01, to lugnet.general, lugnet.admin.general)
