Hi Miles,
You're right in that we don't go back very far with search right now. We
want to improve that. There's no timeline right now, but it's certainly
something we're looking at. There are so many tweets. We want you to have
them all. Some day.

This is one of those questions where I'm pretty sure I know the
answer, but I'd really like to be wrong. :) There doesn't seem to be
anyway to get tweets past ~7 days. Which sort of makes me wonder what
the point of the since and until params are -- for the usages where
only being able to search back 7 days makes sense, it seems like you'd
want more granularity. So my deeper question is whether this is simply
a matter of not being able to *store* all of the data (seems highly
unlikely) or just not being able to adequately *serve* that data
through an open http interface? It would be really nice for research
purposes to be able to have access to that data...
