The original link doesn't work for me. Here's a fixed link: http://www.economist.com/science/displayStory.cfm?story_id=1...

Seems like the Economist moved it under science.

The original link works for me.

Articles from The Economist seem to be accessible in 2 ways:

- www.economist.com/displayStory.cfm?story_id=[story_id]

- www.economist.com/[category]/displayStory.cfm?story_id=[story_id]

In addition to that, it seems to be case-insensitive, e.g. this will work too:

http://www.economist.com/disPlayStOrY.cfm?story_id=11745528

Hrm. The Economist does not get my SEO blessing.

I think the requirement that every little text snippet appears once and only once on every site is bullshit. I can see how it would confuse the lesser search engines, but from a navigational standpoint, it usually makes sense to make content reachable in various ways. So Google should just deal with it instead forcing stupid rules on web developers.
