This is a great point, as it is now, some really great
discussions, and some wonderfully authoritative posts by people
who really know how to do "x" are lost to the mists of time,
because Yahoo archives everything so it can't be found ever
again. It would take the efforts of someone to watch for these
jewels and grab them for the wiki, but you are quite right, it
would be a great advantage to have all that knowledge easily
indexed and locatable.
