I've been bitten by that before myself...though I didn't know it since I
gave up and went to a different search engine after a couple of
attempts. I tend to agree with Josh's interpretation that in the last
month implies the last 30 days or some such similar timeframe. Can we
change the wording on that to maybe "in the current month" or "in this
month" or if we can get fancy just print the month name... "in March"..
though we'd need to rebuild any referencing pages once a month....
