I tried several searches for my old threads. No dice. Then, I searched my name. No dice. Baby **Bosda** says: Search engine go all oogy-woogy, Aunty **Lynn**! Kiss it, make better? 🙂 ---

How odd, it worked for me when I tried. [Anyway, here are all of the threads that you have started if that helps.](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/search.php?searchid=173781) ---

So, do you think you’re just a figment of your imagination? ---

[monks] “The world is just a figment of its own imaginaaa-tion!” ::whomp:: [/monks] 😃 Anyway, this board has more than enough transient glitches to keep Jerry and Co. busy for a long, long while. It does, however, work 100% more than 80% of the time, and batting .800 means you live as a God on Earth. Or something like that… ---

A Doper named **Bosda Di’Chi** Decided he wanted to see The threads that he’d started. Alas, he was thwarted. The hamsters said “No Dope for thee!” ---

Huh… I was just re-reading [my own response](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?&postid=2990281#post2990281) to [your thread](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?&threadid=162865) about tracking people’s Internet activity at work. I wonder if it doesn’t have anything to do with your having an apostrophe in your user name. As an Oracle programmer, I can assure that weird characters like ampersands, commas, and apostrophes in fields that we don’t expect can play _havoc_ with efforts to search on data. ---

Try searching “Bosda” and uncheck “exact name”
