You are awesome!

That is highly useful info. And I think the suspicious will be disappointed both by the posting history, and the fact FR doesn’t allow some change in the origin date.

To: the OlLine Rebel
Thank you for the kind words.

This is also useful for finding your own older posts since the major search engines stopped indexing Free Republic (and possibly shadow-banned certain FR screen names from their search engines).

I will bring up my posting history and start cutting the "more=" index number by different increments until I get to the approximate year/month that I'm interest in and then start clicking on the Next Page from there. I will then use the browser Find function to search the page for the text that I'm interested in until I find the post(s) that I'm looking for.

It's brute force, but FR searches only the titles and Google et. al. won't search FR reliably anymore (and definitely not my own posts).

This is how I find my older posts when recent events make them relevant again.
