Vern or Vernette, doesn't this imply that either:
(a) You didn't look very hard, since being easy, they should also be easy to find
or
(b) They are not so easy?
How about
(c) You didn't read carefully?
The sentence was "Years ago, while I was still writing JAPHs, I was looking for a regex matching itself - and nothing but itself (regexes that match themselves, and also other strings are easy and IMO, not interesting), but I never found one."
Notice that two separate sets of regexes are referred to.
