The Search Page Still Needs Tweaking...

1. The default option should be *and*, not *or*. In most cases, an *or* search is totally useless. (In fact, I have *never* intentionally done an *or* search of the hundreds of searches I've done since subscribing to AA. If the *or* option was removed altogether, I would not miss it. Although if the default was *and*, I would hardly ever have to use the Advanced Search page.)
2. When the *and* option is selected on the Advanced Search page, and the listing is then provided, tweaking the words in the text box above the listing and then clicking "search" performs an *or* search. In its current state, in order to keep doing *and* searches, one must click the [back] button on the browser, to the actual Advanced Search page. But sometimes, the words in the Advanced Search page go away. The listing page should retain the selected options, or at least display the options, in case one wants to keep doing *and* searches without having to constantly go back to the Advanced Search page.
3. This one is not a big deal, but the Advanced Search board selection defaults at the "General Asylum" board, regardless of what board the search link was selected from. It would be nice if the default was the same board from where the "search" link is clicked on. Example: If the search link is clicked from Vinyl Asylum, the default selection on the Advanced Search should be "Vinyl Asylum". If the search link is from the home page, "General Asylum" is fine.
