Seems like that you were able do exactly what I'm trying here. Funny that you used news.com as your guinea pig, too. A week after my post, the search still doesn't return any results. But it may just take a while for new pages to make in into Google's index. Pete – interesting! Seems like that you were able do exactly what I’m trying here.

So I thought I'd send them a message and see what happened.
