I agree that the search function is a good thing BUT I personally do not find the Search Function on this site to be very good (sorry Forum organizers) maybe it is me.
My biggest beef is when I'm looking for a particular thread I end up with hundreds of individual posts from that thread and others. If I know enough info about a thread to search for it I only need to find the thread, from there I can find the post in the thread. (hope that makes sense)
Lastly..
Many times I search for info don't find it for whatever reason, so I end up posting what turns out to be info already covered.
Just my 2 cents.... now back to the thread at hand...
