Advance Search – search type by address?

[EnergySaver]

I actually decided to read the the text regarding “Search Types” on the Advanced Search screen (http://www.geocaching.com/seek/nearest.aspx). I notice there is a “By Address” method described, yet that’s not one of the pull-down choices for actually doing a search. I never really noticed if this has always been down there.

Is this an old choice they took away?
Or is it a new choice that they have not perfected yet?

I remember seeing (and using) that search-by-address option, too. It was there about a year and a half ago, then it went away. There has been a little discussion on the groundspeak forums about the possibility of bringing it back, but no info from “the powers that be”.

Yes, that feature would’ve come in handy for Sunday night’s trivia question. But I probably still would’ve blown it by picking that nearby Minnesota cache!
