Well, I am pleased to announce that the mailing list stats page
has become more useful (certainly to me) offering the ability to
search the archives for "experts", threads and posts containing
the search criteria.  It will even highlight searched for text 
when viewing posts.  Number of results per page can be specified
in advance or mid-browse. 

To celebrate this occasion, the page has also moved, to
http://www.thelastbastion.org/dgd/list.html

Next task: graphs (to keep the punters happy :)

Comments and feedback still welcome!

Colin
