Boolean searches are now less intuitive. How would I phrase as search request for "smart phrase" OR "another phrase" using the new semantics?

Google Removes The + Search Command
Google has quietly removed one of the older search operators, the + search operator. Now if you try adding a + sign in your query, Google will ignore it. Why did Google remove the old search operator?…
arg. I used to love the Altavista search semantics. This makes me sad.
Ah gotcha. (I'm not sure)
"smart phrase" OR "another phrase" still works as of now though.
+Thomas Morffew If I read correctly, the quotation marks make the quoted term mandatory. Or did I misunderstand?
OR is unaffected though right?
