How to clean up GRUB opening screen

Asked by JOHN

I have Ubuntu 10 and Windows 7 installed. When I get the GRUB screen it has a long list of Ubuntu updates with the latest on top and Win7 at the bottom. The list has now gotten so long that Win7 is now on page 2 of that list. How can clean up that screen so it shows just the latest Ubuntu update, the memory test and Win7?
