Thanks to PubMed's new search system/formula, most pages are gobbledygook to me--at least until I figure out how their new system works. P.S. If you don't like how PubMed maps your keyword search term, I noticed that enclosing it in quotation marks will turn off the mapping. For example, if you wanted cultural and not culture, search with "cultural." I didn't make it to MLA this year. Does anyone know where there's a detailed explanation of PubMed's new search formula?
Take care,
Tanya

Subject: Problems with PubMed?
I'm having problems with PubMed. Anyone else?
It is not letting me page through results -- It gives me a gobbledygook
error message at about the third page or so.
