For example, a search for flimsy evidence will return only 12 sentences. One of them is:
G15 363 `;They can't go around alarming people on the basis of flimsy evidence.'

I think this is a fun way to see how words are used in real world. Please note that about 10% of the sentences are taken from oral sources.
