That's thesite archive - thechat archives have the following header:
<META NAME="robots" CONTENT="noindex,follow">
on every page, and as such are non-googlable. Which is useful for those
who post opinions and facts they may not want in the public domain, but is
also a PITA for people who don't keep copies of thechat posts which they
can search locally.

Cheers
