How about qt= for
the target time and qs= for the sigma (provided that some other non-greek
mnemonic can be identified for 's'):

How about a non-GEEK mnemonic? Oh, sorry, I forgot who I'm talking with (-:

LOL!  Yes!  :)  It shouldda said non-g[r]eek or non-gr?eek then, eh?  :-)

[much more deleted, including an intensely elaborate and feindishly clever
way for the server to talk to itself via HTTP EQUIV reload directives --
whew!]

Oh, not via the <META HTTP-EQUIV=...> directive, but via the 'Location:'
header right in the HTTP response.  You can see an example of this in action
(sans a complex HTML form) if you try to pull up an old article URL:

   http://www.lugnet.com/news/display.cgi?lugnet.off-topic.fun:2696

Note that it automatically redirects this (via the 'Location:' response) to
the new URL:

   http://www.lugnet.com/off-topic/fun/?n=2696

without having to mess with sending back an intermediate HTML document.
