Apparently I was wrong: Google Scholar does have Boolean searching, but
Google doesn't want you to know about it! In fact, searching with Chrome
led to a crash. (Coincidence? Who knows?) But I found information on a
different browser.

For the record, use & for and and | for or.

I'd still like to know about alternatives though.
