Would it be better to use a "POST" method than a "GET" method, and keep the raw 
text out of the URL?  It seems like that is begging for trouble....  Of course, 
I haven't been working as much on the HTTP/CGI stuff lately and could be 
mistaken.

Not to mention everyone will want to make sure to do some input "sanitization" 
on the text input to try to filter mischievous input.
