Searchin' for Grandma
We were talking about how long some of us have been using/supporting SBS...and Jim asked about "Grandma"... or rather he lamented that he didn't have some of the old "Grandma" posts from the newsgroups.
Never fear.. Google is here.....
So here's how to search for "Grandma" or.. for that matter, any old post that you remember in the newsgroups:
Go to google.com
then to google groups
Then to advanced search
Then limit your search to a specific group
Then consider limiting your search to a specific author...
and voila....
We find Jeff Middleton's Grandma stories....

I think she may have gone on her world wide safari in the 2003 era but let's see if she pops up in that group
