Hi,

Eiher of *.blogspot.com and *.feedburner.com work just fine
Both *.blogspot.com and *.feedburner.com are blocked in my country.
Oh. you need a feed you can access in ${UNNAMED_COUNTRY}. And, apparently
the State of 'Confusion'.
Hint: if you don't specify the coutry, nobody has a _hope_ of being
able what might be 'not blocked' here.
Sorry man , it's China , and the evil GFW reset all connections it
