AND OR NOT, OR NOT AND, NOT AND OR

So I forgot to do the Boolean search last time so here it goes:

My initial search query was



M.Ward Tour Dates = 214,000 hits

now booleanise lets this mofo:



M.Ward AND Tour Dates = 203,000 hits

M.Ward OR Tour Dates = 30,900,000 hits

"M.Ward Tour Dates" = 417 hits



Not surprised that M.ward OR tour dates had the most hits, but the most relevant by far was the one with the little " " around the search query. They " have a name, I'm just drawing a blank at the moment.



On a side note, if you try to google [ " ] to see what the apostrophes, parentheses are called you will draw a blank....



wait they're quotation marks....no more coffee for me.
