Do a search (without the extra stuff) and hit enter, then add &as_qdr=d from Bruce's quote (without quotation marks) to the end of the URL in
the address bar. It took me about 4 tries to get it right.
Here's an example that will search for "Biomass Power" with the date range selection.
http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q...earch&as_qdr=d
Note the addition of the &as_qdr=d at the end of the address, after the word "Search."
