I read via google from work. When I do, I'm using IE (sigh). I'll try to check it in Netscape from home. But are you talking about the search feature? I almost never use that.

 The "history" feature can be annoying, but it has been that way for a long time. GOOGLE seems to ignore the thread ID's and sorts just by the subject. This can show some ammazingly long threads for common subjects like "SQL question". Received on Thu Dec 02 2004 - 13:19:57 CST
