I realize you most likely do not care but I also noticed the
following:

In Netscape, the urls above render sometimes and do not other times.
Making the home page contain the javascript shared by these pages
seems to make them never render in Netscape.

Note:

Once I load multiple browsers on my machine from the Firefox family
such as Flock, SeaMonkey, K-Meleon, etc I seem to have difficulty
clearing the cache.
