That's because it was originally in email to a company-internal
mailing list.  If you're willing to move to Fredericksburg, VA and
work for Zope Corp, perhaps they'll let you in to the PythonLabs list
archives.  Fair warning:  I work for Zope Corp, and I'm not sure I can
get into those archives.  So don't switch jobs _just_ for that.
