If you do a search for Google in Google News, there is a website 'Half Life Source' that has a ton of results in the first 7 pages that are of old news items. Some going back to middle of 2007 but show up as only 2 hours old on Google News. Was there an indexing issue today? Is anyone else noticing other queries that are affected?
