Sorry to bother everyone with yet another "my query isn't using an
index" problem but I am over my head on this one..  I am open to ways
of restructuring this query to perform better.

I have a table, 'ea', with 22 million rows in it.  VACUUM ANALYZE has
been just run on the table.

This is the result of:

explain analyze
select distinct
    em.incidentid,
    ea.recordtext as retdata,
    eg.long,
    eg.lat
from
    ea, em, eg
where
    em.incidentid = ea.incidentid and
    em.incidentid = eg.incidentid and
    em.entrydate >= '2005-1-1 00:00' and
    em.entrydate <= '2005-5-9 00:00'
    and ea.incidentid in (
        select
            incidentid
        from
            ea
        where
            recordtext like '%RED%'
    )

    and ea.incidentid in (
        select
            incidentid
        from
            ea
        where
            recordtext like '%CORVETTE%'
    )
    and (  recordtext like '%RED%' or recordtext like '%CORVETTE%'  )
order by em.entrydate

EXPLANATION
-------------------------
The reason for the redundant LIKE clause is that first, I only want
those "incidentid"s that contain the words 'RED' and 'CORVETTE'.  BUT,
those two words may exist across multiple records with the same
incidentid.  Then, I only want to actually work with the rows that
contain one of the words.  This query will repeat the same logic for
however many keywords are entered by the user.  I have investigated
text searching options and have not found them to be congruous with my
application.

Why is it choosing a sequential scan one part of the query when
searching for the words, yet using an index scan for another part of
it?  Is there a better way to structure the query to give it better
hints?

I'm using 8.0.1 on a 4-way Opteron with beefy RAID-10 and 12GB of RAM.

Thank you for any advice.
