Comment Re:Getting your point across (Score 1) 333

To paraphrase a post from the Ralsky thread: I am writing this article to request something for a terminaly ill boy. Theu Training is a seven year old boy who has terminal cancer. His ambition before he dies is to be included in the Guinness Book of Records as having the largest collection of post cards. My request is that EVERYONE who reads this posting send at least one post card to him at: 707, rue du Village suite 202 Morin-Heights, (Québec) J0R 1H0 Phone: 450.226.2238 Fax: 450.226.1917 Toll free number : 1.800.861.6618 E-mail: conseil@theumanage.com Please pass this information on to as many people as possible. Let's make a child's dream come true before its too late. Best wishes. A hopeful person.

No my point was simply that unless you *know* that the results shown in the instant search are only a subset of the ones you'd get if hitting enter, it's (perhaps semi-unintentional) censoring the results. When you simply get no results and have to hit enter to see anything at all, fair enough - but in the example I quote, it's unreasonable to assume that everyone would realise that the results for "murder" are any different to "murder + CRLF"

It's a naive, domestic operating system without any breeding, but I think you'll be amused by its presumption.
