[Sigia-l] examples of "best bets" search results?

[Marcia Morante]

Thanks, Peter.  That's exactly what happened.  I searched for "lupus" and
there were no best bets.

I tried a few others, including melanoma, and was successful.  When I
searched for "funding", I got a best bets lists for "grants", which I
thought was another smart improvement.
