If you want to copy a particular website, copy it. Look at what it
says to users, look at what it says to user-agents, send requests, look
at responses.
While strawberry's suggestion would violate the general principle
that says Don't Mention the Mechanics, I regard it as less harmful than
the server-side jiggery-pokery proposed upthread.
