Source of the famous “Now you have two problems” quote (2006)
It really bothers me that Google has allowed groups to deteriorate so much.  At one time, it was actually a decent archive of Usenet history, but since then, search has deteriorated, and apparently, posts are sometimes missing.<p>Perhaps the people who are now famous that posted on Usenet back then didn't want posts from their college days in the spotlight, and their friends at Google implicitly let the site go to hell. </conspiracy-theory><p>Edit: Hmm, I may be wrong.  A while back, many of the links in this list of "memorable Usenet moments" [1] were broken, but they seem to work now.<p>Edit #2: Okay, I was not wrong.  For example, take a look at the link on that page to "December 1982: First thread about AIDS" [2].  The link takes you to a Usenet post that doesn't even mention AIDS, in the newsgroup fa.telecom.<p>[1] <a href="https://support.google.com/groups/answer/6003482?hl=en" rel="nofollow">https://support.google.com/groups/answer/6003482?hl=en</a><p>[2] <a href="https://groups.google.com/forum/#!msg/fa.telecom/EmQ-s_EGgSA/Jq6xiaLM8ncJ" rel="nofollow">https://groups.google.com/forum/#!msg/fa.telecom/EmQ-s_EGgSA...</a>
