Is there a way to search the archives?

GD fills so quickly that the last page - 30 - is the end of December. Selecting the Archives sends me to Help & Search.

There used to be - DU3? - that a list of previous months was at the bottom of LBN.

a keyword and/or the author's name in your search. You'll need to specify the date range, and since GD is so active, searching for a commonly used name or keyword (or threads from a DUer who posts a lot in GD) will mean you'll often hit the limit of 24O results before the complete date range (even a range like a month) is searched, so you'll have to edit the search to see more results.
