You need to delete your cookies, I think.  Also, the home page itself is
accessible without cookies (unlike, e.g. netflix.com), but that link I
posted isn't [...] that's weird, looks like the first page you go to
works but afterward it randomly fails to load the page if you don't have
cookies enabled (they're using some service called "Incapsula") --
hitting reload repeatedly eventually allows the page to load.

Very annoying.

In case you haven't heard, Facebook isn't exactly Open Source.  ;-)
