Weird.  [<a href='http://radio.weblogs.com/0101679/2002/07/26.html#a676'>Sam Ruby</a>]</p></blockquote>
<p>I think Paul's comments are really helpful. The 3 values for "method=" provide 3 totally different services, each requiring different parameters. It makes a lot of sense to make 3 URLs for each service.</p>
