[CAUT] caut archives?

[Fred Sturm]

Hi Andy,
	Is it possible to do a "virtual" search box at the archives page,  
where you type in your query, and when you hit return it sends you to  
Google, enters the query in the search box and adds site:ptg.org/ 
pipermail/caut? Or, if that isn't feasible, can the instructions you  
wrote be placed on the site?
Regards,
