Tuesday
April 11, 2000
Though a valiant attempt was made to create an index for Ensign, it is just more work then the editor has time to keep us and yet the need exists to find items and information in the huge archives of this project. So let us try this search engine out. If you are looking for something in Ensign this search engine might be a big help. We will keep it here on the front page (It will move to the bottom of the page where it will stay) and let's see how it works out. We would appreciate hearing any comments you might have about the search engine or past articles, everything published since May of 98 is still online.
