What are you talking about?  Searching the newsgroup on Google is part 
of their service offering.  You can do advanced searches on 
bit.listserv.coco or any other newsgroup.  I see a big bright text box 
at the top right corner of the page with a button that says: "Search 
this group"  and a link called "Avanced Group Search" which lets you 
search according to date, exact words, phrases, etc.
