For all of you who are frustrated by the large (sometimes hundreds or
thousands) of hits you get when using Internet search engines. Go to search
engine called Alta Vista (http://www.altavista.com), it by far the fastest
and the best one available right now. Go to their help section and look for
the section on "Constraining Searches". By using Boolean logic and bound
phrases, but limiting your search or at least a part of your search to a
particular part of the page, you can cut your hits down to a very
manageable number. Good luck and happy searching!
