Evil bastages (Yahoo! GeoCities, not you)! Blyeah, ptui! Not only do they
fail to give an automatic forward to the new URL via the HTTP 'Location:'
header, but in the error page they display, they don't even give a clickable
link to it the hard way, and they don't even tell a visitor how to modify
the URL by deleting the "~". Methinks the only thing GeoCities is concerned
about here is signing up new users. :-/
Thanks for posting about this, Ed...I'll bet millions of links out there on
the web are all now hopeless broken.
