Interesting. How would you teach this to avoid a certain site? 
Unfortunately, the first site in the sourceforge mirror list has an IPv6 
address, but fetch can't talk to it for some reason, so my connection hangs 
for a while before that site times out and another is tried. I tried the 
following, which I didn't think would work, and was not disappointed. :)
