Westlaw/LexisNexis query help

For the last year, I've been designing a program that interfaces LexisNexis and Westlaw. While I cannot get into any of the specifics just yet, I am in need of a little help with testing. Basically, I just need any of the most insane queries that you guys have created while conducting your searches. I've unfortunately let all of mine expire, and they are no longer available through the Research Trail or History features of Westlaw and LexisNexis, respectively.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Clever. I would think that most people wold be proud of some of their more intense queries, and would love to share them with others. You don't get too many opportunities to brag about your elite research skills :)

I guess I could always go to the live chat and ask for help constructing queries "for fun."
