I removed that, as it's not accurate - if you do

        tcpdump host foo and port 80

doesn't put "any" between, for example, "host" and "foo", even though 
they're separate arguments, and if you do

        tcpdump host 1.1.1.1 host 1.1.1.2

you get a parse error rather than a filter that does "host 1.1.1.1 and 
host 1.1.1.2".
