This OR That

Sometimes there's a flood, sometimes there's a trickle.
Ever want to do a search for something in Answers, but not pick up some other term? Well, here's a few extra tips to make your Y!Answers searches better:
| AND | find both terms |
| OR | Find either term |
| ANDNOT | find the first term, but not the second. |
So, say one wants to find answers about long pointy, throwy things without so many references to America's favorite pop-tard. Well, you could try:
spears ANDNOT (britney OR britney OR brittany)
Granted, it's not perfect since she of the Sinead look, seems to have a never-ending assortment of first name misspellings, but it's a start.
