Well, to search for stuff that doesn't predate the comp.lang.ruby <->
ruby-talk ML gateway, you could use the deja power search page:

  http://www.deja.com/home_ps.shtml

Just put comp.lang.ruby in the Forum entry field and plug whatever is
relevant to your search in the other fields.

After you have pulled up a specific entry, it is often useful to click
on ">> Thread" (toward the upper left hand corner of the frame), which
will show the thread tree, and back on individual entries will then show
handy "<< previous in thread next in thread >>" navigation links
(toward the upper right hand corner of the frame).
