Mourning the loss of our friend, WhitPhil.

Not only is it faster, but it's also much smarter in a lot of ways -- natural language, better page ranking, spelling corrections, etc. It's not perfect, of course, and old Advanced Search is still available for anyone who needs it either by clicking on the arrow to the right of the Search button at the top or by clicking on the Advanced Search link that appears at the top of the search results.

And the old Advanced Search seems to be working much much better. Not one failure in two days, it's usually 80% fail.

I suspect the lightening of the load on the old search may help it's reliability.
