I feel that using the term "Stronglight" should get results. Am I doing something wrong?
I do a lot of searches, mainly for my own previous posts. My experience has been that that the Advanced Search function is only good for a single word, maybe a two-word phrase; and short common words and long words will not work.

Using google for longer,more complex terms seems like a good idea.
