Number of searched items by google groups

[rumkus]

Sorry if this sounds silly.
I have always been searching the groups using google groups which was
really great and so helpful.But lately the number of returned items
diminished drastically.
Has anyone any idea why ?
Thank you in advance.

Has anyone any idea why ?

Because Google's software has gotten REALLY flaky and unreliable lately.

I wish I had a better alternative to suggest.

Not silly at all, it's worrying. My experience echoes yours, I can't find
anything older than about six months.
