That's not downloading it, though.

Plus, that only goes back to 1995.  The stuff older than that is gone.  I don't
know where it went or why they removed it, but about 10 years of messages are
gone.

I hope it's a temporary glitch, because I had been using it to search for old
chess programs and authors.


If you are interested in very old messages, I found a few from 1981-1985 back
when it was NET.Chess

I stumbled across these when I was trying to track down some old programs.

These are back from the early days of usenet.  When the newsgroups were done by
direct dialing among systems, etc.  The Net.Chess group was one of the very
first they did, since they were very interested in computer chess.  (I guess
it's fortunate for us, they weren't into something a little more
kinky....[grin])
