When we were in the woods of Virginia a couple of weekends ago, Max was noting that he set up a search system for a database that then contained about 20,000 messages, but that there are already in excess of 60,000 essages today, and the system he set up simply can't handle it--it times out before the search is through. He's got a revised search engine up his sleeve and is geeting ready to implement it soon, but I guess soon isn't yet.--Charlie Baum
