How did I miss this? Google Scholar now has all federal cases in its database

I just learned from my state bar journal that Google Scholar’s databases now include full text federal cases, with citing references and the whole deal.  How did I miss this?  If someone as supposedly tech-aware as I think I am just found out about this relatively new feature (debut Nov. 2009) I am guessing at least some readers of The Blog did too.  If you’ve never used Google Scholar, go here, http://scholar.google.com/, and select federal cases.  Tips on using the legal databases are available at http://googleblog.blogspot.com/2009/11/finding-laws-that-govern-us.html

This is what I get for ignoring the Google Blog.…
