I'd been in the habit of letting wget retrieve nytimes links, but today I finally fought with it long enought to learn a few things. - wget works because it remembers cookies while redirecting. I was sure that enabling cookies required a flag, but nope. - If I increase the maximum redirect level in dillo, it gets up to 9 before nytimes relents and figures out that I don't want to give it any cookies and provides me with the page. - If I change the www to www10, it works immediately and doesn't bother with redirection at all.
