I get my best ideas when I can't do anything about them.

I was thinking about what happens on my wiki when a user clicks on a Red 
Link now.  On my drive back from my office I realized that I could write a 
PHP, that queries for that page on en:Wikipedia and if it exists, pulls the 
contents over and display it in my wiki as if it were there, but with a header 
that it came from Wikipedia.

So these would be transitory pages, not really existing, but allowing the 
user the experience of not leaving my site.

Is there already such a gizmo?  Or am I going to have to Go Fish?
