So, are you saying that if I search for the "missing" posts, they
should (may?) show up as an earlier post?
I tried that with the AA Big Book, and it did show up as one post for
each chapter. The Nisargadatta post showed up also, back in 2011.
For large posts, I guess you could search first, but then there may be
some newer folks who weren't around then and just look for what's new,
so probably worth a (re)post anyway.
Thanks.
