WordPress Search works very well if and only if you limit your search to the actual words being looked for. Adding an other word such as meaning, and quotes, kills the ability of the internal search offering. Below are the headlines you were all seeking.
Phi Beta Iota: We use the TIME Cover for Chuck Spinney to make the point that today, 35 years after he blew the whistle on defense mis-management, in such depth as to warrant a TIME Cover, we still have not corrected any of the deficiencies he brought forth. Defense acquisition remains corrupt to the bone, “cost plus government spec” idiocy that is a constant betrayal of the public trust.

Tesla will not initiate patent lawsuits against anyone who, in good faith, wants to use our technology.
