Byron,

I've used both but, since the sas-l posts often never get to Google (but Google's posts always do seem to get to sas-l), I've only reverted back to Google posts when sas-l exceeds its daily limit.

And, when the link has been down and repaired, I think the lost posts never do make it to Google's posts, severly limiting its searches.
