FYI Stephen:

The search engine doesn't seem to be finding the new selection: "112: Hot and Wet"

I tried searching using both "112" and "hot and wet" (without the quotes). Both attempts came up empty.

(I found the selection by going to "titles".)

As noted in "help" below, the full-text search engine ignore terms of three characters or less, plus common terms. There's not much I can do about this without creating an secondary index of terms. Now you know ...

The search engine would be more user-friendly if it would provide a message reporting that no useable search terms were provided. Even better, it could display the list of terms used in every search.
