				Date search syntax
			 
			
			
			Ok, I am wondering if I am misunderstanding what "date:<=30daysago" means, because I keep getting every book with a date before 30 days ago.  If I am looking for every book added 30 days or less (within the past month) why doesn't that above query work?

	My experience is 30daysago is the base point so the most recent 30 is >= (the basepoint)  |
