I wanted to give a link to an old Hobby News item, but gave up trying to find the thread.

If we can't have a Search Hobby News facility, could comments passed be include in the normal search process?

Hi mad mac -- that was the reason I suggested this:
TMP link

MiniatureWargaming dot com25 Nov 2008 6:45 a.m. PST

use the Google site command

site:theminiaturespage.com SEARCH TERM

That will restrict the search to TMP

use the Google site command

site:theminiaturespage.com SEARCH TERM

Better yet, use the Google query

site:theminiaturespage.com/news/talk/ SEARCH TERM

Also if the news item was from a manufacturer (and you know which one, obviously) you can look them up in the manufacturers directory – at the left of their entry page there's a button "view news" which brings up items posted by or featuring the company.
