But you haven't read (or at least understood) RFC 2616 else you would
not have needed to ask the above question. Or wasted so much time
failing to comprehend my references to HTTP and HTTP headers. So it is a
bit soon to tell whether you believe the HTTP protocol specification or
not. Though to believe or not is not really an option with a technical
specification, it's not like they represent opinion.
