Anybody figured out a good quick way to find a particular ng other than
go to Advanced Search and enter the name? I liked the old drill-down
system better.

The new interface does suck. I've sent them mail "firmly suggesting"
that they've made an error; suggest you do likewise.

It's an adaptation of the GMAIL interface, and no, it doesn't apply well
to threaded newsgroups, IMO.
