Well.  I did a little digging through the folders.... and I found....
ta da....   that ~/.macromedia/flashplayer/#sharedobjects/ contains
flash cookies, as does ~/.macromedia/flashplayer/macromedia.com/.  It
seems to leave a history of all the flash sites you've visited.

wget, on the other hand seems to download everything into the current
folder.  Thus, your cookie should be in the folder from which you used
wget.  Thus, using wget in your home folder is probably not a good
idea in the long run.   I'd create an html folder or download folder
use wget from there.    Thus ~/download/wget -U etc....
