Actually, there's a google trick you can use to search it. Simply prepend the domain
with "site:"
and it will restrict searches to that site. For example, the following query:
Ovid Inline::C site:archive.develooper.com
Reveals that I have asked precisely one question on this list that used the exact term
"Inline::C". Note that you can use the protocol (http://), but a trailing slash
results in no
search results found.
Actually, this is an ironic search feature. Joel on Software
(http://www.joelonsoftware.com/)
recommended this trick to search the MSDN network using google since Microsoft's own
search engine
is so pathetic :)

Someone asked me how to count to 10 in Perl:
push@A,$_ for reverse q.e...q.n.;for(@A){$_=unpack(q|c|,$_);@a=split//;
shift@a;shift@a if $a[$[]eq$[;$_=join q||,@a};print $_,$/for reverse @A
