If you choose to do this, be careful not to move your FAQ... I moved my FAQ
from one URL to another, and now InfoSeek Guide lists two URLs when they
search for a topic relavent to the info in my FAQ. Even worse, it rates the
old URL higher than the new one, so that's where most of the people go
first, only to have a file presented to them telling them to go to the new
location... <8*(
