Also, we should just get rid of the ignition keys for cars, since some of them can be hot wired.
On an unrelated note, whereabouts is you car?

Popehat's write up on this is even better:
Referring to the U.S. Attorney's Office and the IRS's CID is like siccing both the Klingons and the Romulans on Prenda, except that the Romulans have a somewhat better grasp of due process than IRS CID.
Prenda Law certainly won't live long and prosper

It's one thing to get a driver/pilot to fly one of these well, it's another to get them to keep them in an air-worthy condition.
Having worked at a service station and seen how people treat their cars, the thought of them flying overhead scares me.
Flying cars do have a place; but it's with those who can afford the infrastructure to keep both them and the pilots in top condition- the military, emergency response, and professional car services.

There've been calls to open-source the game.
That's assuming that there's anything worth opening. According to a quote form an "ex-3D Realms employee" on The Duke List, not that much ever got done:
Entire maps would be done from the ground up, almost to beta quality, and then thrown out simply because no one would make decisions early on in the process. (Read up on Valve's 'orange box' method of design -- that's how you make games) Another example of [redacted] is the fact that there was one part of one map that was being worked on before I started working there. Nineteen months later and the same designer was still working on the same part of that same map... I'm not blaming the designer, it wasn't his fault.

Which version were you using, exactly (beta, 3.0, 3.0.1)?
For me, the awesomebar searches titles and URLS, returns both, and searches the full length of each.
You might also want to check whether one of the extensions/themes you were using was monkeying with it.
