Nope, but I can ask if it's doable...

Seems like it's straight forward:
http://search.news.yahoo.com/usns/ynsearch/categories/47/index.html?p=Li
eberman%20OR%20gore

I tried that but adding additional terms *reduced* the numbers of hits. An OR search ought to increase them. "wifi" = 20 "Wifi or wlan" = 7
