        Not really. There is no page '/palm' at slashdot.org, though there
is a directory called '/palm/' there, with pages under that. He's getting a
404 because there is no resource there to retrieve called '/palm'.

        We're in danger of having that site completely lock out Plucker (as
others have as well) because of client-hit abuses. Just be aware of that,
and don't pound the site dozens of times in a row to "test" it. The guys at
Slashdot (Hey Rob!) are our friends, and we want to keep them that way.
