Link fails for me - it goes to a registration check page or some such?

Oh, sorry - don't know why, it works fine in Chrome and I have no registration there. Try this instead: http://www.mercurynews.com/top-stories/ci_13579962

To make sure you get past the registration system on MercuryNews.com (I know this because I'm quite familiar with their CMS), append a variable named source with any value to the end of the URL, like this:

Looks like there's some sort of javascript on the article page that redirects you for some reason...

It seems to direct me back to a registration check page at ycombinator, which Firefox refuses to load because of SSL issues. XSS attack?
