For all of those URLs I get:

"The connection was reset

The connection to the server was reset while the page was loading.

* The site could be temporarily unavailable or too busy. Try
again in a few moments.

* If you are unable to load any pages, check your computer's
network connection.

* If your computer or network is protected by a firewall or
proxy, make sure that Firefox is permitted to access the Web."

Peter, I suspect you have a setting issue on your end. I'm using
Firefox v3.6.8, and each of those pages pops up almost
instantaneously.

Are you inside a company where some IT personnel (the oxymoron of all
oxymoroons :-) have fiddle-farted with _your_ firewall?

Phoenix, AZ, a city noted for many civic-oriented inventions such
as automated garbage collection, has added a new tool to its Fire
Department safety equipment... addressing problems with accidents
