Hi, I'm a member of the Wolfram|Alpha Team and we saw your post and wanted to give you an update. The 'trick' that Stephen showed wasn't using Mathematica syntax, but rather something we developed to test what the system would return to other locations. In fact, Alpha doesn't recognize all of Mathematica's syntax. As we develop tips and tricks, we'll post them to the Wolfram|Alpha Community: http://community.wolframalpha.com/.
