I haven't been able to get an archive search through in weeks (well, maybe
once or twice).  They always timeout after a few minutes.  I try and try
again like a fool, but it's no use.  I know some people try to use google
search, but this doesn't pick up everything (or even most things) as I've
found that google doesn't completely index the archives.

How big are the archives?  10GB?  20GB? 30GB?  I wouldn't mind keeping that
much on my hard drive so that I could run a proper indexed search on them
when I needed to look something up.  Anybody know if it's possible to get a
copy?

Thanks very much,
Wes
