  2. Hi Melinda,

    I'm glad you like these searches; thanks! Unfortunately, I don't think I could manage requests. But I would be very interested to hear what searches are of interest to you (and others). And, you never know, some eager searcher out there may contribute their strategy to the blog. I'm open to the site becoming a collaborative workspace :)

    Best,

    Robin
