Hi Randal,

There's nothing wrong with Wiggins' advice. Take a look at "the first URL
[he] posted earlier" and you'll find nothing about the HTTP::Request::Common
module at all. In fact I can't find anywhere it tells you not to use the
constructor directly - the nearest I've come across is in the POD f
