[TheForge] geoblocked URL was Re: Trade ax?

[jerry Frost]

It looks like "Geoblocking" is an attempt to collect taxes for online
purchases by many European countries. I don't know why it'd apply to an
educational URL but tax everything seems to be how things work.

There were other axe heads of similar design on another link but I'll have
to ask the buddy who linked me. I'll post it when I find it.

     I just got it to work using this URL (from my Canadian IP,
nonetheless!)  Maybe it was a gremlin.

     Generally speaking, if accessing a URL is problematic, enclose it in
angle brackets like these <> before sending the email.  It seems to "fix"
the cases where the URL gets split by line breaks.
