BTW, John, the problem I have seen with these flags is that replies only go back for about two days, so that is the extent you can search for "bang_list" etc, articles. I know it's probably to save memory, but it would be nice to be able to search the archive for replies, or let replies go back more than two or so days on your self search page.

The problem is with the way FR does self-search. Too much data, and the very popular (10% of the time) self-search takes way to long to complete.
