Yeah, ran that search myself. ;-) Wasn't all that impressed with what I
saw.

The hypermail info looks interesting. I'll look at their search
capability a little more. Google is okay, but private lists aren't an
option then. I'll try the 'site' keyword and see how that helps. I
haven't been very impressed with Google for mail list searching in the
past. (It's great for web searches.)
