"The existence of the searchable archive, all the way back to 1991,

I agree. It's unfortunate that most subscribers to TWAIN-L seem to be 
oblivious of the list archives and search engines. On page 25 of "A 
Guide to the ADLsphere: Over Eighty Academic Discussion Lists With 
Links To Their Archives & Search Engines" [Hake (2010)] I wrote:

"A. WHAT'S A LISTSERV?
LISTSERV is a trademark of L-Soft <http://www.lsoft.com/>. Although 
many discussion lists (e.g., AERA lists, EvalTalk, PhysLrnR, POD, . . 
. . [[STLHE-L]]. . . .and others - see those preceded by an asterisk 
in the APPENDIX ) utilize L-soft software and may properly be called 
"listservs" a more general term is "discussion lists" (DL's). 
Incidentally LISTSERV SOFTWARE PROVIDES MARVELOUS ARCHIVES searchable 
by keyword, author, subject, date, or any combination of those. . . . 
. . . . . . .For a catalog of LISTSERV lists see 
<http://www.lsoft.com/catalist.html>."
